Chapter 130 Sweeping and advancing!

- The total score of 3:0 is undoubtedly a super burden for the Nuggets, not just a monkey on the back. Few people are optimistic that the Nuggets can win this series. In more people' words, what the Nuggets need is to win the next game as much as possible. It's not swept away.

On April 26, 2009, the Denver Nuggets' home stadium was the Pepsi Center.

In the fourth game of the first round of the Los Angeles Clippers and the Denver Nuggets playoffs, all the first three games were defeated, which undoubtedly became a battle for the Nuggets to defend their dignity. No one wanted to start the off-season with the swept hat behind their back. The bold words before the start of the series had long been laughed at. If they were swept again now. It is undoubtedly worse for the Nuggets.

"Although the morale of the Nuggets has completely burst out at this point, and fighting for honor has become their biggest idea, they will still unconsciously carry a big burden on the side of the holiday after losing three games in a row, while the Los Angeles Clippers obviously have statistics. The defensive and offensive efficiency of the Clippers in three games is much higher than that in the regular season. The insider, which is recognized as a weakness, did not show a huge loophole because he scored 54 points in three games. Instead, according to statistics, Tyson Chandler further improved his defensive efficiency in the playoffs. Cameron's three-game performance can only be said to be average compared with the regular season. If he still can't exert his strength today, the Nuggets are likely to start their vacation with four consecutive defeats, and Cameron will also get his fifth first round out. On the contrary, the Clippers are eager to advance under the leadership of Lin Fei. The big desire for promotion will make them continue to work hard. I feel that this game will be a fierce game. This is the game analyzed by Jeff Van Gundy at the pre-match commentary table.

The game soon kicked off. The progress of the game was completely in line with Van Gundy's prediction of the game. The Nuggets refused to be swept by the Clippers. Whether it was offensive or defensive, they did not hesitate to make great trouble for the Clippers.

At the end of the half, people will be surprised to find that Lin Fei's shooting rate is only 43 percent. You know, Lin Fei's shooting rate in the regular season is as high as 58 percent. Even in the first three games of this series, Lin Fei still has a shooting rate of 53 percent, and the shooting rate has dropped by 10%. It can be imagined that Lin How much defensive pressure was on the fly.

But the 43 percent shooting rate is already the highest among the players who have shot more than four times, and the defensive pressure of the game can be imagined.

At halftime, the two sides played 33:32, and the Nuggets at home led the Clippers by one point.

"The game is really tangled. Don't my ears have a quiet listening function? The loud sound of iron strike almost deafened my ears again and again. Mark Jackson complained.

"Mark, I don't know if you have found a rule?" Van Gundy turned his head and said to Jackson.

"What kind of rule? "What's the rule?" Mark Jackson made a joke with a blank face.

"There are always some substitutes for the Clippers to stand up and become Lin's biggest helper. The first game was Wilson Chandler. He stood up from the bench and got the 18+7+5 data that the main players may not get. He is the best player other than Lin Fei, and the second game is JR Smith facing his old club. In the second game, he threw six three-pointers, which is the most three-pointers in the last minute of the two teams. He also got the highest score of 24 points except Lin Fei. In the third game, another substitute player stood up for rookie Mario Chalmers. He was born for the playoffs, not because he was his debut season. The playoff performance was tense. He played well in the first two games, and in the third game, he sent 10 assists on the bench one more than the starting Andre Miller, and scored four three-pointers. Now no one has performed well in the first half of the fourth game, and Mario's performance is very different from the third game and even a little worse. If it's really a rule, I'm wondering who will stand up from the bench. Van Gundy's analysis made Mark Jackson smile. There is no doubt that the Clippers' substitute is strong, but it is not as Van Gundy said. If it is true, he really expects the early arrival to save his poor ears.

The 20-minute half-minute break soon passed, and the players from both sides appeared again. The first to launch the attack was the Nuggets. Anthony caught the ball against Artest with his big buttocks and turned around and rushed into the inside line to put the ball into the basket.

"Well done, Cameron should be like this. He has countless offensive skills. He really shouldn't stick to his own shooting. Such a hit on the inside line is definitely a smart and rational choice. The Nuggets can't win without him."

And Anthony opened his arsenal as the Nuggets fans expected, which made the Clippers' defense miserable. The low shooting rate in the first half completely disappeared and turned into how to play. When the game went to the fourth minute of the third quarter, the Clippers gained unfavorable news, Andre Mi Le sprained his ankle while defending Billups and had to leave early. This scene gave the Nuggets hope.

"Do you want to see the Nuggets win in Yanjing? Andre Miller's injury was a huge blow to the Clippers. Mario's performance in this game was very bad. At this time, can he change Golandradzic to try it, or use Lin's direct control of the ball to organize the attack? Van Gundy raised his own questions.

"Mario, you take a break first, Golan, you play." Mike Dunleavy first comforted Chalmers with a simple sentence. Normally, his first substitute point guard should replace the injured Miller, but now Dragic is inevitably a little lost.

Dražić was a little surprised. He had very little time to play in this series. He didn't expect to play now, but he was not a rookie nervous but excited.

"Lin broke through the defense and faced Neine... He chose to pass the ball, a 45-degree chance of Golandrazic!" With Jackson's ** commentary, Dragic picked up the ball and threw it against Billups, who came in a hurry to make up for it.

Wh!

The basketball fell into the net neatly, which was the fourth three-pointer he hit in a row.

"It's hard to believe that Mike Dunleavy made an excellent substitution. Golan Dragic is not like a rookie at all. He seems to have an innate heart. Four consecutive three points obviously fooled the Nuggets. Obviously, they can't accept the fact that Carl's suspension is very necessary. They must Strengthen the defense of the Golan.

The score on the field has become 55:57, and the Clippers have been 14 points behind at most to only two points behind.

When the timeout came back, the Nuggets were surprised to find Dragic on the other side. "A strange breakthrough, Golan is like reading the Nuggets' defense in advance, which is simply a juggling goal."

At this time, people remembered the rule that Van Gundy said. At the end of the third quarter, the away Clippers scored more than 7 points, and Dragic was undoubtedly the greatest contributor. In the third quarter, he contributed 20 points in just 7 minutes. Dragic's outbreak not only successfully resisted the Nuggets' counterattack, but also fiercely. It hit the Nuggets' confidence.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Dragic explained what a point guard is. Under his organization, the substitutes of the Clippers were rejuvenated again. The cold situation in the first half was completely gone, and the Nuggets undoubtedly became the biggest victims.

83:73, the Clippers won by a ten-point difference. When the whistle at the end of the game sounded, Lin Fei saw the unwillingness in Anthony's eyes, but everything became a reality.

4:0, the Clippers completed the sweep. In addition to the substitutes in four games, the biggest contributor to the Nuggets in this series is Lin Fei, with an average of 30.5 points, 6.5 assists, 6.0 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 1 block in four games, with an overall shooting rate of 52.4%. The Nuggets scored 16 three points in four games, and the Clippers became the first team to advance to the divisional semi-finals, and also entered the divisional semi-finals again after three years.

For the Nuggets, the bold words before the start of the playoffs became the biggest irony, and they also became the first team in NBA history to advance to the playoffs with 50 wins in the regular season but was swept away in the first round.

For Clippers fans, tonight is undoubtedly a festive night, and for Nuggets fans, it is undoubtedly a lost night.

What the Clippers need to do is to wait. The opponent waiting for their next round will be the winner between the Lakers and the Hornets.

The victory swept, and Lin Feidi's mood also became very good. "I'm very lucky that our whole team is well integrated. This game is not only a promotion, but also shows the progress of our whole team. We lost last year, and we did it this year."

"Golan's performance is amazing. I seem to see him wearing the No. 23 jersey. I am happy and proud of him, but the victory of the game belongs to everyone in the team. We are united, and we implement Mike's tactics to the best, which is the key to the victory of the game."

The losing party was naturally disappointed, especially his own words became a great irony, but after the end of the game, Anthony did not escape and did not lose his mind as if he suddenly matured. "The result was very disappointing. I don't know exactly what to say or what to review. All I know is that we have failed. For any reason, I won't blame anyone, including myself. I will look forward and keep this game in mind forever. There are many things I need to do that I can make progress. I will start over and come back next year. Bless Lin and his Clippers, I hope they can go further, preferably the champion.

At this time, the league announced the first award of the 2008-09 season - the best sixth man!
