At the end of James career, he tied with Jokic in the West Finals 1 + 1 championship!

Basketball

The last game of the Western Conference semi-finals came to an end. The Nuggets finally lost to the Thunder in the tiebreak battle. Jokic also lost in the duel with Alexander!

There were many surprises in today's game, and the results of the game were very different from what I expected!

First, Gordon's leg was originally a second-degree strain, so he had to rest for dozens of days, but he still played and grabbed 11 rebounds, ranking third in his series.

Second, the Nuggets had played more tiebreakers, and they were more experienced than the Thunder, but unexpectedly, they were defeated in the second quarter today and lost 32 points in the whole game.

Third, Jokic should have carried the game today, but he only scored 20 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists today, while Alexander scored 35 points and lost in a strong conversation! Maybe he really can't beat him anymore, his physical fitness should be at its limit.

Fourth, this game should have been a very stalemate game, but unexpectedly, the Nuggets were beaten in the second quarter! In the second half, the Nuggets never breathed again. This game was not like a playoff game, but more like a regular season crush.

In fact, the focus today is that Jokic disappointed the fans again. It has to be said that such performance is completely incompatible with the first person in the league!

In 7 games against the Thunder, he had 2 games, scoring more than 40 points, but in other games, he scored no more than 30 points, averaging 28 points, and his data was pretty good, but there was still a gap compared to big guys such as James, Durant, and Curry, and his assist data was directly cut by half!

It is obvious that Jokic's overall performance can be seen that his regular season data is better than the playoff data, which is still a certain gap from those great stars. Usually, great stars are all playoff data, which is better than the regular season data.

Jokic has played in the playoffs for 7 years since joining the NBA, winning the NBA championship in the 22-23 seasons, and reaching the Western Conference Finals in the 20-21 seasons, and finally entering the Finals!

Let's take a look at James. Since joining the Lakers, he has played in the playoffs for a total of 5 years. In the 19-20 season, he led the Lakers to the NBA championship and reached the Western Conference Finals in the 20-23 season!

And James's career average of the playoffs is 28.4 points, 9 rebounds, and 7.2 assists. It is obvious that his playoff data is better than the regular season data. This is usually the case for real superstars.

From this perspective, James's career was very successful at the end of his career. In the Western Conference Finals, a champion, he was able to achieve a playoff record similar to Jokic, the league's number one player, which is really great. After all, that's James after the age of 34! It has declined a lot compared to its peak period. It seems that James is still doing well in recent years.

In a sense, Jokic and James are both one of the most successful players in recent years. Antetokounmpo has never reached the Eastern Conference Finals since winning the championship. After Tatum won the championship, he was stopped in the second round of the second year. Of course, Curry was also very successful, but other players were not so lucky.

It seems okay! At the end of James' career, he tied with Jokic in the West Finals 1 + 1 championship!
