Garlinari missed a three-pointer, and Jokic collected another defensive rebound.

He arrived at the front court and then supported the organization.

The Nuggets obviously began to defend against his pass.

He turned around and flipped over Nurkic. Hickson missed Aminu and didn't dare to defend him. He directly scored.

The difference in points reached 7 points.

The Nuggets called a timeout.

When Jokic came out, he was greeted by enthusiastic cheers from his teammates.

This period of the Pelicans' pursuit of points depends entirely on Jokic.

Although Jokic is not as good as Dinwiddie, his white and fat appearance is very popular and his teammates like him very much.

Jokic sat down and gasped while he arrived on the sidelines.

His weight is still too big, his physical energy is consumed very quickly, and he reacts even more under the plateau.

After the timeout, there were substitutions on both sides. The Pelicans played Tang Tian and Davis in advance, and Williams wanted to take advantage of the situation to catch up.

The Nuggets also replaced Lawson, Avraro and Mozgov.

The Nuggets attack first after the timeout.

After Lawson signaled his teammates to pull away, Mozgov mentioned the pick-and-roll at the three-point line.

After disassembling, he played Jokic in a misplaced position and accelerated the layup that broke into the inside.

Although Xiao's reaction was a bit slow, he still reacted and caught Jokic's defense and played.

The Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian held the ball with a forty-five-degree angle on the right, and all his teammates pulled it apart.

At this time, a different scene from Whiteside was present.

Because Jokic had three-pointers, Mozgov was forced to defend himself to the three-point line, and the Nuggets' inside line was quite empty!

Tang Tian rushed to the Nuggets to double-team and started to rush to the basket in one step.

Avraro couldn't keep up with his speed and watched Tang Tian rush into the inside.

Tang Tian jumped high one meter away from the basket and directly made a one-arm dunk!

"Bang!"

The dunk was strong and the muffled sound was heard through the loudspeaker, causing a stir in the fans at the scene.

This kind of ball has a great impact on the morale of both sides.

Lawson went to the frontcourt to continue looking for Jokic. This time the Pelicans did not replace him, Lawson got room for attack, but he failed to make a three-pointer with a step-down.

Jokic collected defensive rebounds again.

Tang Tian was almost at the time Lawson shot.

And in the next second, Jokic's long pass had already arrived from the backcourt.

The biggest change in the small ball era is the speed of offense and defense conversion. A big man like Jokic who can pass the ball is the speed booster!

Tang Tian received the ball and rushed to the basket, scoring another dunk with both hands.

The score difference is only 5 points left!

Jokic's performance in this period really caught the Nuggets off guard.

Xiao was also a little confused at this time.

Jokic is now a third-inside substitute for the Pelicans, and this sudden attack really makes him unprepared.

After being dunked by Tang Tian in succession, the morale of the Nuggets on the court was greatly affected.

When cooperating in the frontcourt, Lawson made a pass mistake and was directly intercepted by Ariza.

Fortunately, the Nuggets retreated quickly, and the Pelicans' fast break did not start.

Cole took the ball to the frontcourt and gave it to Tang Tian again.

The Nuggets double-teamed in advance, and Tang Tian did not give the ball to Ariza in the open, but directly gave it to Jokic at the top of the arc.

Tang Tian is now shooting and passing through, and playing with the ball is the most suitable for him, but it is very physically exhausting to keep playing like that.

So occasionally switching offensive mode is also a good choice for him.

After giving the ball out, he ran without the ball and ran out of the three-point line through Ariza's pick-and-roll.

Jokic arrived with an advanced pass.

Tang Tian caught the ball and made a three-pointer.

"Swish!"

After the basketball flew through a curve in the air, it entered the net hollow!

The difference is 2 points!

After Tang Tian scored, he pointed his hand in Jokic's direction.

He never experienced this comfortable 3-pointer after leaving the Spurs.

Holiday is a good defender and scorer, but his assists are indeed average.

In comparison, the ball fed by Jokic is really comfortable.

The Pelicans have already taken shape.

The Nuggets' weaknesses began to be exposed. They scored a lot, but they didn't know who should attack after falling into scoring drought.

As a result, after a wave of attacks, the Pelicans defended for 24 seconds!

"Defense! Defense!"

The DJ at the scene felt that the momentum was wrong, which led the fans to cheer for the home team loudly.

Tang Tian took the ball and continued to break through the basket. Mozgov shrank his defense and he passed the ball to Jokic at the top of the arc.

Jokic made another three-pointer.

"Bang!"

This time the ball was a bit far away and hit the back edge of the basket and bounced high.

Davis gave the racket to Tang Tian with his long arm.

Avraro and Hickson both rushed over and over Tang Tian.

Tang Tian threw the ball directly toward the top of the arc.

Jokic gets the ball again.

He adjusted and then took three points.

Mozgov couldn't get out, so he stuck Davis and was about to get the board.

The ball flew through a high parabola in the air.

"Swish!"

With a crisp sound, the basketball penetrated the heart and entered the net again!

Jokic made the second three-pointer in the quarter!

It may be luck to make the first three-pointer.

This shot into the second one shows that he really has the ability to make three points!

This three-pointer also allowed the Pelicans to overtake the score!

Xiao reached out and called for a pause.

Jokic really became his big problem tonight.

Jokic was cheered by the Pelicans again when he left the court.

He has a huge presence on the court this quarter, making 3 of 4 shots, and has scored 8 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists!

This is really no more efficient.

But Williams had to replace him at this time because his face was already a little pale.

After the timeout, Whiteside and Holiday replaced the field.

The Nuggets' offense, Lawson's breakthrough was directly driven by Whiteside.

Jokic's performance was eye-catching, giving Whiteside enough rest time also gave him a lot of excitement. He was quite excited at this time.

The Nuggets' offense failed to score, and Whiteside protected the defensive rebound.

The Pelicans attacked the frontcourt, and Tang Tian doubled the team and gave Ariza three-pointer, and the latter's shot was off.

But Whiteside directly dunked the ball through Mozgov!

The game's momentum has completely turned to the Pelicans.

Jokic's performance made the Pelicans regain their rhythm!

The Nuggets played well when the momentum was going well, but no one stood up when they fell into adversity, and the Pelicans began to control the situation.

In this quarter, the Pelicans played the Nuggets 35-10!

At the end of the half, they went from 10 points behind in the first quarter to 15 points leading!

This time, Gaoyuan couldn't save the Nuggets at home.

In the end, with a wave of flow in the second quarter, the Pelicans defeated the Nuggets 108-85 and won the first victory in December.

The Nuggets still have five players scoring in double digits, but Lawson, who scored the highest, only scored 15 points.

Tang Tian, ​​the Pelicans, scored 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, Davis scored 16 points and 7 rebounds, and Whiteside scored 10 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks.

Jokic performed well and made another appearance half a month later. He played for 20 minutes and scored a quasi-triple double-digit data of 15 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists!
Chapter completed!
