36 of 57 three-pointers in the open space! The Nuggets signing Westbrook s substitute is accurate than Curry, the new formation is too luxurious
5:40pm, 2 July 2025【Basketball】
On July 2, the Nuggets operated quickly and accurately. Five major operations helped Jokic make a comeback. The strongest sharpshooter replaced Westbrook. He has never fought such a wealthy battle.
Nuggets are really very powerful in the NBA free market, and they are crazy signings to win the championship for Jokic. Now they have signed another Hardaway Jr., a super sharpshooter who averaged 11 points per game with the Pistons last season. As soon as he comes, the team's lineup has become more luxurious. And this time, Hardaway replaced Westbrook's position and work before, and this time he will become the most outstanding targeted pitcher.
Westbrook was with Jokic last season, and there was often a three-pointer slam, especially in the second round of the series, the Nuggets vs. The Thunder, both sides reached a tiebreak. Facing the championship team to the tiebreak, the Nuggets are no longer ashamed of the situation, but the key is that Westbrook provides too little help and support.
Westbrook's three-point shooting percentage was 21%. In the previous round of the game, he scored 42% of his three-pointers, but in the second round, Westbrook suddenly became unacceptable, and the Nuggets couldn't win. So the situation is very clear now. The Nuggets need a more stable pitcher, and their coaches are very well strengthened and clear.
Nuggets immediately signed Hardaway Jr. and only gave him a year-on-year minimum salary. This is a player who has entered the finals at the Mavericks. Needless to say, he has rich experience, but he is also very capable. The media then brought a major data support to the Nuggets' reinforcement. Last season, Hardaway scored 63% of the three-pointers and scored 36 in 57 shots. This is a real top pitcher. As long as you release a three-point open, I can shoot the ball in.
What the Nuggets used to need was a person who could make three-pointers at open space. To put it bluntly, isn't it Hardaway? Now this person is here directly, with experience, can shoot, and three-pointers are also very stable. This is an attitude of definitely wanting to rush to the championship. All this comes from the previous trading Porter Jr., one point revitalized all the Nuggets. He saved 40 million in transactions, and received very good players, and also gave the team hope, which led to the subsequent operations. This is how good the operation is. And Hardaway is certainly a nerve knife, but he is often the kind of person who is forced to shoot incorrectly. If you ask him to throw a few of the three-pointers at a space, there will be no problem with him. The shooting rate of 57% in a season. The data under the large sample shows that his fixed-point three-pointers are trustworthy.
He is now replacing Westbrook's position. With Jokic in there, you will have a lot of open positions. As long as he can maintain this open three-point shooting percentage of 63%, the Nuggets will be invincible. Last season, Hardaway Jr. scored 168 three-pointers, guaranteed 2 in a game, which is the other person's three-point output. No matter how bad the three-pointer is, can he be worse than Westbrook? It's enough for the Nuggets to have such a defender now. Players with the ability to sign a basic salary will definitely not lose. With him and Cameron Johnson, plus Murray and Gordon, Teacher Joe will have an unprecedented and extremely open space on the court. Now he passes the ball out, just watch his teammates shoot with confidence. If the opponent continues to double-team him without any brains, he will definitely pay the price.
