Chapter 501 Getting better and better
During the rotation period, the Blazers caught up with the score, but it was not a big deal.
After Xiang Chu played again, the Nuggets immediately gained the lead again. The Blazers' defensive problems have not been resolved.
Both sides changed into the final decisive lineup, and the Nuggets became Jeremy Lin at the first position. This is a powerful sixth man treatment, but Jeremy Lin is only because of tactics, he is not a sixth man in the traditional sense.
Jeremy Lin is the core style of play, but unfortunately he is not strong enough. Giving him this opportunity during the rotation period is also a more reasonable way to use it.
The Blazers replaced the fourth position with Harkless, who feels good. Their offensive strategy has not changed at all. They only hope to win from the players' shooting percentage.
But the Nuggets will not give them a chance, and McCrum still does not give any room for flanking.
As for other points, as long as the Nuggets' defense is a little bit more desperate, they will not be efficient at all.
The team's defensive strength at the last moment is different. At this time, McCrum, who is the first point of the Blazers, can't come up with means, and the team will definitely become a weak side.
There is no way around this. McCrum was a substitute in the previous two seasons, and now he has to adapt to the sudden emergence of the core. The performance of the Blazers at the last moment can be said to be quite chaotic.
The Nuggets are best at seizing this kind of opportunity. They hand the ball into Xiang Chu's hands to score steadily.
Now the Blazers insider Mason Plumlee, the confrontation is really worse.
When the time came to the last 5 minutes, the Nuggets were only leading by 5 points. In the last 2 minutes, the gap came to 11 points. The victory of the game belongs to the Nuggets.
The Blazers' lineup has changed drastically this season and they are short of major generals. It's not bad to be able to play like this.
After the game, their head coach Terry Stotts also made it clear that no matter what kind of difficulties the team encounters, they will not be bad.
This is the end of December, and the Nuggets have won 12 consecutive victories. If they win another game, they will tie the winning streak again, and the next opponent is the No. 15 Warriors in the West.
The Nuggets have two days to adjust, but then it's back-to-back.
The good news is that Gallinari can come back, he feels very good now.
Gary Harris is also good, but Gallinari is stronger. After he comes back, the Nuggets' lineup will have more depth.
If Gary Harris can continue his form, it can be said that the Nuggets' rotation will not be a big problem.
Although he can't continue to start, but this period of time has improved him a lot, and he has gained enough.
"I feel very good, I'm just prone to a little accident." Gallinari said easily during training.
His mentality is still good, and there are not many athletes who can maintain their standards after being reimbursed.
"That's good. The team needs you. We can win a few more championships together." Xiang Chu said with a smile, "But you have to learn to protect your body. Some things can be avoided."
"Do you think we have a solid season?" Gallinari asked.
"Of course." Xiang Chu is full of confidence, more confident than before the start of the new season, "We lost a few games, but the lineup won all the strong matches after a period of adjustment, we have enough advantages. "
Gallinari also laughed, "That's really exciting. I will try my best to keep healthy in the future. After all, I don't need to go inside now."
Xiang Chu shook his head, "That's what makes people worry."
Gallinari's style of play is not a pure shooter. He will rush up many times, but his body is not at that strength. This is what we need to worry about.
Seeing the situation of his teammates, Xiang Chu also likes the magic skills very much. He will soon be able to upgrade the magic skills again, so he will give priority to that skill next.
With his current status in the arena, the time to upgrade his magic skills to a level will be shortened a lot, but the conditions for upgrading to another level are much more stringent, and he may not be able to meet all of them until he retires.
But that's enough, he's invincible at the fifth position now, so there's no need to keep going strong.
The Nuggets will fight the Warriors again. Although the Warriors have been beaten twice by the Nuggets, they still have more records. This also shows that the Warriors are completely crushing against other teams.
According to the performance of previous seasons, it can be said that there are four or even five first-tier teams in the West, but there is still a big gap between them. If the standard is to be raised, then there will be no strong teams in the East. Warriors, Nuggets The record with the Spurs is too good.
On January 1, Xiang Chu went to Golden State with the team.
Xiang Jianzhong came to watch the game and chatted with Xiang Chu for a while. They will also go to Denver to see their grandson in a while.
He just wants to watch Alexander work hard and get married now, but Alexander has always been careless, and Xiang Jianzhong and his wife are afraid that they will have to wait.
The Warriors now have Barnes injured and truce, which has more or less affected the team
It's no problem for Iguodala to replace him in the starting lineup. Iguodala was also a player who played more time on the team, but the team's rotation will change and the offensive end will change.
For the Nuggets, Gallinari returned directly to the starting lineup, and the two sides attached great importance to the game.
The same is true for the outside world. The duel between them may affect the regular season ranking in the end, and then affect the situation of the Western Conference playoffs.
As the best performing team in the West, they also deserve attention from all parties.
At the beginning of the game, both sides entered their respective rhythms, but no one expected the next development.
According to the plan formulated before the game, the Nuggets tried their best to limit Curry and Clay when they played, but unexpectedly, Green broke out.
By the time the Nuggets reacted, Green had already hit 4 three-pointers.
This is a rare situation. He often chooses to let go of this point in order to limit the Splash Brothers Nuggets. Shooting is not his specialty. Green, like Iguodala, is a type with strong comprehensive ability to defend and pass the ball.
So when he hit a three-pointer, the Nuggets didn't care, and didn't expect 4 consecutive shots.
Curry and Clay were staring at each other, but the Warriors also immediately gained a double-digit lead.
Even so, the Nuggets can only strengthen their defense against Green, and they still dare not relax against Curry and Clay.
As a result, Iguodala hit another three-pointer. Fortunately, Iguodala didn't explode and only hit one goal.
Speaking of which, the Nuggets' defense is actually fine. It is the X factor that appeared on the offensive end of the Warriors.
You must know that Curry was restricted and missed one three-pointer, and Clay only hit one three-pointer.
But it is true that the Nuggets are in a very dangerous situation now. What they have to do now is to make the defense more perfect, and then play better and more stable than the Warriors on the offensive end.
