11-point victory, the Nuggets defeated the Timberwolves! Jokic 19+10, Hua Zi 40% of 16 undercover

The competition in the Western Conference this season is unprecedentedly fierce! The Thunder are still the top team with unparalleled dominance. The Nuggets, Lakers, Rockets and other teams also maintain strong competitiveness. However, at the same time, teams such as the Spurs and Trail Blazers have risen. Correspondingly, teams such as the Clippers and Grizzlies have fallen, making the competition in the Western Conference more intense!

The competition in the Western Conference is fierce, and the records of each team are very bad. This round of the Western Conference is ushering in a peak competition, the Nuggets VS Timberwolves!

Under the leadership of Jokic, the Nuggets have performed very well this season, with a record of 9 wins and 2 losses, ranking second in the Western Conference. Especially after the offseason reinforcements, the Nuggets lineup has become more comprehensive! Hardaway Jr. has become the offensive arrow on the bench, Varan has become a qualified substitute for Jokic, and Brown and Watson are also playing a role on the bench. When Johnson and Braun are fully healthy, the Nuggets will become even stronger!

The Timberwolves are currently on a 4-game winning streak, ranking 5th in the Western Conference with a record of 8 wins and 4 losses. This result is still because Huazi missed 4 games, otherwise their record would be better!

The Timberwolves' lineup is very comprehensive, with good players in every position! This season, McDaniels has further improved, DiVincenzo has recovered, Randall has further integrated into the team, Huazi's performance has become more stable, and the team's combat effectiveness is quite good. This season's Timberwolves are also a force that cannot be ignored in the Western Conference!

The two teams are relatively close in strength, especially the Timberwolves insider with Gobert in charge, which has some restrictions on Jokic! Sure enough, under the focus of the Timberwolves, Jokic did not perform very well. His personal scoring and passing were greatly restricted, and the Timberwolves also took the initiative in the game! Jokic performed poorly, but fortunately other Nuggets players stepped up. Hardaway Jr. fired continuously from the outside, supporting the Nuggets' offensive. Gordon and Murray also gradually entered the state. The two teams began to enter a tug-of-war on the court. The Timberwolves took a slight lead at 31:29 in the first quarter! Reid hit a 3-pointer from the outside and Conley hit a mid-range shot. The Timberwolves' rotation lineup took advantage and widened the point difference on the field! Seeing that the momentum was not right, the Nuggets' main force reappeared. Jokic made consecutive shots and passes to stabilize the situation for the Nuggets. After halftime, the Timberwolves maintained a 5-point lead!

Back in the second half, the Nuggets continued to exert their offensive power and instantly completed the lead. Gobert was late for his fifth foul and was forced to take a rest. The Nuggets completely reversed their decline and wanted to widen the point difference! The situation was not good. Huazi stepped forward and made continuous fouls to stabilize the situation for the Timberwolves. Randall also continued to score. The two teams once again fell into a tug-of-war. The score was tied at 92 at one time. It was difficult for anyone to suppress the opponent! But who would have imagined that after that, the Timberwolves' offense suddenly failed, and the Nuggets launched an 8:0 offensive to widen the gap. The Timberwolves tried to catch up, but their offensive efficiency was still not high. Jokic used his personal scoring and passing to completely dominate the situation. In the end, the Nuggets defeated the Timberwolves 123:112 and won 7 consecutive victories!

In the battle between the Nuggets and Timberwolves, the Nuggets relied on their more stable performance at critical moments to win the final game with 11 points!

The Nuggets did not show any personal explosive performance in this game, and they played very averagely! Gordon scored 16 points and 7 rebounds, and Hardaway Jr. became a surprise player, scoring 20 points. Playing next to Jokic, he was also completely activated! Murray scored 21 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Although Jokic was limited by the Timberwolves, he still scored a near triple-double of 19 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. His dominance on the court was amazing and he is expected to win the MVP again this season!

The performance of the Timberwolves is hard to describe. Four players on the team scored in double figures. Reed scored 19 points and Randall scored 22 points. They all played well. However, as the core, Hua Zi played very poorly. He shot 4 of 17 in the game. , only scored 17 points. When the team was in crisis, he was completely invisible. The offensive end was up and down, and his stability was insufficient. He had no absolute scoring performance. Although Huazi is a good rising star, he is still far away from becoming a superstar!
