The Nuggets won four games in a row and advanced directly! It turned out that the height turned out to be the Timberwolves, especially Huazi
The Nuggets won three games in a row to advance, the problem of the Timberwolves is that no one can increase production, Huazi is just Huazi, not Danzi, even if it is Kezi, it can't be played on the pinching iron, Xiaotang's years of experience have proven that it can't be used as an offensive axis, why can the offense of the three-board axe increase production in the playoffs. Huazi didn't seem to expect such a big increase in the defensive level against himself this time.
Mr. Yoo should have returned to the high post when he played the Timberwolves, and he couldn't keep asking for the ball in the low post like the Lakers, he went back to the high post, Gobert couldn't play the three-second zone to the Timberwolves, and after the pack, the misalignment of the other four people who played the Nuggets was the key to the Nuggets' victory, and I feel that as long as Jokic increases the number of times he holds the ball in the high post, the Timberwolves are very dangerous
And Gordon played a lot of ball-handling, and Gobert's defensive position changed up. Gordon blocked and dismantled Jokic a lot, swapping Gobert in front of Jokic, especially at the end of the first quarter, and directly beating Gobert. The biggest offensive change in this tactical attack is actually Gordon's change here, changing Gobert from a co-defensive position to a main defensive position, and Gobert's defensive system will not be able to hold up when Gobert is not in time
If the scale is tight, it can be said that the whistle wants to control the court to help the Nuggets, and if it is loose, it can also be said that the referee wants to protect the Timberwolves, this one is indeed a bit tight today, but the scale is relatively consistent, and both sides have paid a lot of fouls. The end can be a little looser. But obviously it can't be the second game so liberalized, now the rules of the player's defensive action are more perfect than in the previous hand-to-hand combat era, and the various action scales have been refined whether the foul is made, but also to protect the players and promote offense
Laugh at me, last year, the Nuggets also beat the referee to kill the Lakers, this year you Timberwolves want to think that the referee is unfair, you also fire up the juice to sweep the Nuggets 4-0, won't there be so much to do? To put it bluntly, don't you still don't have that strength? The referee controls the field and controls the difference of ten points, and it is difficult to lose 27 points and admit that he did not play well?
I don't understand what they think, and the Nuggets beat the Lakers, too, the thick eyebrows feel normal to Jokic's defensive actions, and the referee feels normal, as soon as Jokic makes the same action to the thick eyebrows, he blows a foul, obviously the penalty standards of the two teams are different, and some people have to say that the Nuggets are guaranteed by the referee, and the whole game is still making a big fuss about the two somewhat controversial penalties, and it is clear that his G5 more than 20 free throws are more exaggerated, making it as if the Nuggets can't win, and winning is the referee's guarantee
