The tiebreak has not started yet, 4 bad news comes from the Nuggets, Gordon is diagnosed, Westbrook s dream of winning is shattered again

Basketball

After the Knicks defeated the Celtics at home, three of the four teams in this season's division finals have been confirmed, namely the Pacers, the Timberwolves and the Knicks. In another series, the Nuggets will adjust the Thunder away to play a tiebreak battle. The Nuggets just beat the Thunder the day before and have enough confidence to face the tiebreak, but multiple bad news has been exposed in a row in a row. The Nuggets will do their best to be in trouble in the Western Conference Finals.

According to the latest reports, Gordon was diagnosed with a left hamstring strain, and G7 was listed as a suspect in playing. As the core of starting stability, Gordon played a very critical role in the team. He defeated the Clippers in the first round and beat the Thunder in the second round. Gordon played a key role in both offensive end and defensive frame. Although he is currently in a doubtful state, considering the importance of the game, Gordon will definitely try to play, but he is injured and it is difficult to perform at a normal level even when he plays. This is a very big challenge for the Nuggets.

The second tiebreaker will be played in Russia City. The Thunder has a home advantage. In G6, the Thunder's loss is mainly because Jaylen Williams is in poor condition, far below normal level. For All-Star players, the playoffs will not be sluggish for two consecutive games. Once Jaylen returns to normal level, it will still be difficult for the Nuggets to deal with it, let alone the Thunder's home court. Whether it is the atmosphere or mentality of the field, the Thunder is more advantageous.

Then it is Jokic's emotional problem. Jokic has averaged 33.3 points, 14 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 2.7 steals in the last three games, but he has also shown dissatisfaction in the game many times. Whether he can maintain an excellent state in the tiebreak is unknown. Whether he can calmly adapt to the game if he encounters an unfair call is also a key factor in whether the Nuggets can advance.

Westrow, who joined the Nuggets this season, performed averagely in this round of series, especially in the last four games, no double-digit scores, and even made consecutive shooting performances such as 2 of 12 shots and 1 of 7 shots. Although he joined the Nuggets at the base salary, both Malone and Adelman in the game have given Westbrook a lot of time and tactics, but Westbrook's sluggish performance is difficult to confirm that he can explode in tiebreak. Now at the age of 36, if he is eliminated in tiebreak, his career prospects are very unclear, and it may be difficult to get the championship ring again.

With the arrival of the tiebreak battle, will the regular season MVP award that has not been awarded for a long time come?
