Everyone has seen the series between the Timberwolves and the Nuggets, and it can be said to be quite lively. After the first two games, the Nuggets were in a passive state, and when they all thought that the Timberwolves would sweep or a gentleman's sweep, the game changed dramatically. Everyone saw in the last two games, the Nuggets tied the big score and returned to their home court. Draw + return to the home court, one move is eaten all over the world, the Nuggets have a lot of credit for 4 people, and it is correct to abandon one person.
There could be no problems with the Nuggets in this game, and they did it in the end. In fact, it is a trick that is eaten all over the world, that is, Murray in the No. 1 position and Jokic in the No. 5 position play blocking and dismantling, this move makes the Timberwolves really have no choice, and Malone still found this basic disk. The Timberwolves couldn't crack the pick-and-roll, so they were very passive. In fact, this is the basis for the Nuggets to gain a foothold in the league, and the abandonment of Porter Jr. on Malone's side is also a great change, and it has received a lot of results, and the strategy is very correct.
If you want to say that the Nuggets won the game, you can find 4 people. First Murray. After a brief adjustment, Murray's shooting percentage in both games began to pick up. That's the way the game is, Murray and Jokic are indispensable, especially against a team like the Timberwolves. Murray was 8-of-17 from the field and 3-of-7 from three-point range to finish with 19 points while also diching out eight assists. If the Nuggets want to win against Kings, they need to play like this, especially on Murray's side.
The second is Gordon. Gordon's game was a real X-factor, and Gordon had a productive play in the first round, and now Gordon has played that trick again. Gordon was the point of being let go, but Gordon gave a big enough return. Gordon was 11-of-12 from the field and 2-of-2 from three-point range, and the Timberwolves had no choice. Gordon's 27 points are not calculated for the score. What's more, Gordon also had six assists and grabbed seven rebounds.
In third place is Brown. Brown was reused by Malone in this game, and the guy also played the closing game, which has to be said to be really useful. Brown has plenty of energy and can chase down opposing defenders. Brown finished with 11 points on 3-of-4 shooting. It is precisely because of Brown's play that there are stable scoring points on the bench. Of course, in this game, the Nuggets scored 27 points on the bench, which is also quite thirst-quenching, while the Timberwolves only have 13 points.
Fourth is Jokic. Jokic's game shows everyone what an MVP is and what a championship-caliber player is. Jokic was extremely focused, and he did it directly in this game, hitting 15 of 26 shots and getting 35 points, 7 assists and 7 rebounds. Jokic knew the importance of this game, he led by example, and he set an example for everyone. Under Jokic's leadership, the Nuggets hit 45 of 79 shots, a 57.0% shooting percentage.
For the Timberwolves, the game was lost, and their weaknesses were completely exposed. Will you use the twin towers next? That's something to consider. Gobert was a defensive stalwarts to be true, but five turnovers in the game hurt the team. In addition, except for Edwards, there is no one who has been able to step up and score consistently. Edwards scored 44 points, and there was no consistent second scorer, and no solid third scorer, which was all for nothing.
Next, the two sides will enter Tianwang Mountain, and whoever wins will take the initiative. This series is really interesting, each side won at the other team's home court, and I haven't seen it this year.
