4: 3 No miracle! The league s first tiebreaker advanced to the top, the double-young scored 59 points, Jokic was depressed

On May 19, in the NBA Western Conference semi-finals, the Thunder played against the Nuggets at home. In the last game, Jokic continued to use a large quasi-triple double to defend his last home court, dragging the game back to Russia City. Alexander was troubled by fouls in that game, and the team's offense and defense were broken, and he lost the game regretfully.

Although the Thunder did not have an advantage in experience, the Nuggets turned away as soon as the game started, especially Gordon's injury brought the morale to the team, and the Nuggets led 26:21.

But in the second quarter, everything changed due to the performance of one person. This person was Jaylen Williams, who performed poorly in the last game. He scored 17 points in a single quarter, including 8 of 11 shots, and all 6 balls entered the penalty area. This made Jokic lose the other, and the defensive end problems were exposed. In this quarter, the Nuggets were scored a 19-point difference, and the situation reversed.

The Nuggets tried to counterattack in the third quarter, but physical fitness problems were finally exposed. Especially Murray only made 6 of 16 shots in this game, Jokic was already willing but not strong enough. At the end of this quarter, Caruso made consecutive dunks, which made the Nuggets lose their enthusiasm. Jokic won 20+9+7 in the whole game, made 5 of 9 shots, and was no longer able to dig into the inside again.

The fourth quarter game almost became garbage time. The Thunder team advanced to the Western Conference Final with a strong victory of 125:93, and played again after 9 years. The Thunder doubles Alexander and Jaylen Williams scored 59 points together. As long as the two are in the form, the team system will be smooth. They will also try to make up for the regrets of Durant and Westbrook back then and continue to move forward. Jokic failed to lead the team to perform a miracle. He left with regret and could walk out of the semi-finals with his head held high.
