4-3 to advance, 3-3 to change fate! The NBA is the most unbelievable team to be born, be careful when the league is ranked first

The NBA divisional semi-finals are exciting, with 8 teams fighting for 4 divisional finals. The specific situation is as follows: Thunder 3-3 Nuggets, Timberwolves 4-1 Warriors, Knicks 3-2 Celtics, Pacers 4-1 Cavaliers! The Pacers and Timberwolves advanced first, and the Knicks were expected to return to the home ending series after missing the first match point. The Nuggets successfully saved the first match point after losing Tianwangshan. The US media updated the probability of winning the championship, as follows: The Thunder ranked first with 55%, the Timberwolves ranked second with 14%, and the 3rd-6th place was the Knicks (12%), the Pacers (11%), the Celtics (6%) and the Nuggets (5%) respectively. The Nuggets are not favored again and again, but they are unwilling to admit defeat and believe in evil. They are against the will of heaven and change their fate again and again, and win respect with their strength!

The Nuggets have built a team with Jokic and Murray as the core. They have been sharpening their swords for seven years and successfully won the NBA championship in the 2022-23 season. This is also the first time that the Nuggets have won the championship in history! At the same time, Jokic also completed the feat of getting 3 MVPs + 1 FMVP in 4 years! However, after the Nuggets won the championship, the team was "slimming down" the lineup, and many champions left the team's lineup strength and depth were greatly reduced. Especially in the playoffs last season, the Nuggets were eliminated 4-3 by the Timberwolves in the Western Conference semi-finals, and their road to defending the title came to an abrupt end. In the words of fans, the Wild West is like sailing against the current, and if you don’t advance, you will retreat. The Nuggets’ doing this is not only a self-destruction of their future, but also a squander of Jokic’s peak period!

This season, the Nuggets not only further subtraction in the lineup, but the champion coach Malone and team GM Booth were also both dismissed at the end of the season, which was an uproar in the world! In the end, the Nuggets achieved a record of 50 wins and 32 losses, ranking fourth in the Western Conference. Before the playoffs started, no one thought the Nuggets could cause storms in the West. Especially when the Clippers became the Nuggets' first-round opponent, considering that the Nuggets are in a turmoil and the Clippers are in good shape, the whole world almost fell to support the Clippers. Even so, the Nuggets did not doubt themselves because of the contempt of the outside world, but instead burst out with amazing combat power in the ignorance of the outside world, which made people admire them.

in the first round of the Clippers, the Nuggets counterattacked all the way when they lost their home court advantage in the opening game of the series, winning the Tianwang Mountain first, then winning the tiebreak, and advancing 4-3! In the second round, facing the No. 1 Thunder in the league, the Nuggets took away the home advantage in the opening game of the series. Even though the Thunder stubbornly regained the home advantage and won the series match point in the Battle of Tianwangshan, the Nuggets did not sit back and wait for death and surrendered after returning to the home court. Instead, they worked together to achieve their goals and defended the home court tenaciously and resolutely, rewriting the score of the series to 3-3, and changing their fate against the will of the "G7"!

From the first round of 4-3 to the second round of 3-3, we must admit one fact that the key to the Nuggets being able to get to where they are today is that they have the best leader of Jokic, the & best leader in the NBA league! Even though almost seven players of the Nuggets rotated the cards, and even if Jokic often felt the tragic feeling of being unable to match the four-handed ones, he still worked hard and tried his best to protect the teammates without any conditions! So far in the playoffs, Jokic has played 13 games, averaging 40.4 minutes per game, scoring 26.7 points + 13 rebounds + 8.1 assists + 2.2 steals + 2 three-pointers per game. Those who help themselves, God helps them. Jokic's trust will eventually be rewarded. Murray, Gordon, Porter Jr., Braun, Westbrook, Strauser and others have all stood up to help them on certain critical nights or critical moments!

This is the Nuggets' path to changing their fate this year's playoffs. They will never admit defeat and believe in evil. They will have endless fun fighting the Clippers and endless fun fighting the Thunder! In the words of fans, once the Nuggets bring the game to their own pace, once the opponent makes a mistake, they can still "snatch the fire" like the championship season, causing the opponent to pay a heavy price. So far in the playoffs, the Nuggets' offense has been fluctuating, and their defense is not top-notch. The substitute score (20.5 points) ranks at the bottom of the league, and the average positive and negative value per game is even negative (-2.8), but this does not affect their ability to create surprises and surprise the world in the 7-game 4-win series! In the words of fans, as long as Jokic is here, this team should be respected and this team has hope of winning the championship!

The sound of monkeys on both sides of the straits cannot stop. The light boat has passed thousands of mountains. The NBA's most unbelievable evil team was born. The No. 1 Thunder in the league, with many soldiers and 10 players, has been forced into the tiebreak battle. Who dares to underestimate this Nuggets? Now that the series has been dragged into the tiebreak battle, the Nuggets’ goal has been achieved, so you must be careful if you are the first in the league! More importantly, Jokic and the Nuggets will have two days of precious time before the tiebreak battle. Once they are fully charged, the young and energetic Thunder really has no confidence in winning! But do good things, don’t ask about your future. I hope Jokic will continue to work hard, and I hope Westbrook and others will not be afraid of the years and the wind, and will launch an attack on the championship! Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
