This season , the Nuggets, have gone through a roller coaster. Although , Jokic, played bravely in the beginning, and their outrageous statistics were comparable to those of ancient greats such as Chamberlain, the Nuggets were hard to win. At that time, they exposed many problems, such as The depth of the lineup is too poor. After Pope and Reggie left the team, the Nuggets' substitutes were hard to watch, and none of them had decent scoring points. As a result, Teacher Yu had to work hard for at least 40 minutes every game. Another example is that Murray's performance continues to be sluggish, and his data after receiving a big contract are not as good as last season. There is also the fact that Westbrook has been unable to play, which often drags down the team.

Because of this, the Nuggets' ranking once fell to the second from the bottom in the Western Conference, which gave us the feeling that they were about to be ruined. Even Malone made discouraging remarks, and the Nuggets management even encountered the outside world. criticism that they were wasting Jokic's peak period. But as the season progresses, we find that the Nuggets have begun to set sail. They defeated the Mavericks not long ago. They have now won 5 consecutive victories, and their ranking has soared directly to 4th in the Western Conference. In front of them are Suns , Thunder And Warriors , and the Nuggets' 5-game winning streak is full of gold, defeating strong teams such as the Thunder, Heat and the Mavericks.

Why did the Nuggets suddenly become stronger? To put it bluntly, there are several reasons. The first is that Jokic becomes more courageous as he fights. According to NBA big data statistics, Jokic scored a total of 297 points and 137 points in the first 10 games of this season. With 117 rebounds and assists, he is the first player in NBA history. Not only that, Jokic has scored 30+15+15 4 times in his career, which is the second most in NBA history, second only to Oscar Robertson (11 times). Another point I have to mention is that Teacher Yue has achieved triple-doubles six times this season, with a triple-double rate of an astonishing 60%.

As long as the Nuggets' record does not decline, I'm afraid there will be no suspense about the MVP again. Jokic will get the 4th MVP sooner or later, because his data can only appear in 2k. The second reason is that Westbrook has also found a way to adapt to the Nuggets. He has started 3 games in the past and performed very well. Jokic and Westbrook have been able to coexist. When the two are on the court at the same time, Jokic will Sacrifice the ball, take the initiative to be a blue collar, or play a screen, giving Westbrook room to play. Jokic's ability to change himself to be compatible with the opponent is indeed something.

People like the original Durant , James , Harden and Leonard could not adapt to Westbrook, but Jokic could. Teacher Yao had to hold the ball, and Westbrook also had to hold the ball. As a result, Westbrook Winning all three games when he started is enough to show that Jokic is by no means the kind of player who cares about statistics. The third reason may be that he was stimulated by Westbrook. Murray also began to break out after his return, standing up in two consecutive games. The final reason is that Braun has perfectly replaced Pope this season, averaging 16.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.

averages a field goal percentage of 55% and 50% of three-pointers. Braun has become the Nuggets' most stable scoring point besides Jokic. This young man dares to play and fight, which is very good. In an interview some time ago, Jokic said this: "Since last season, we have been teaching him (Braun), telling him to be aggressive and find his own suitable shooting position. I think he has become He is more decisive and will not doubt himself." These words are easy to understand. Teacher Yue thinks that Braun has become stronger.

Then came the focus. When talking about the role Westbrook brought to the team, Jokic said: "I have never seen anyone as energetic as Westbrook, and he is also full of positive energy. , He has always been confident here (Nuggets), he told us that we can win all games, I really appreciate this,” Jokic’s meaning is obvious. The Nuggets have become even more powerful after having Westbrook. Strong, don't forget that Gordon is recuperating during this period. Waiting for him to come back means that the Nuggets still have room for improvement. The Nuggets have the strength to bring the league to a close. If they are healthy, they may not even be opponents of the Green Army.
