Not to mention whether the Lakers will help defeat the Nuggets' competitors, the consequence of the Nuggets' rest for a few days is to play back to back.

Fortunately, the second game was in Denver, and it wasn't that scary when I returned to home.

Although it is not stopping, it is much more convenient for rest and diet in your own territory.

The opponent in this game is the Mavericks. The Mavericks were injured for a while because of Nowitzki this season, and the start was very bad. They did not give up, but now there is only the theoretical playoff possibility, and it is actually impossible to enter.

But if they don’t show off, they will definitely be different from those bottom teams.

The main problem for the Mavericks this season is defense, especially inside defense.

When they meet the Nuggets, they must also attack, otherwise they will not have to fight at all.

The Nuggets' outside routines are slow to heat up, but as Xiang Chu beat Kaman in the inside, they gradually stabilized.

After Chandler came up and the team changed into a big and four small teams, the Nuggets gradually grasped the situation and caught up with the score.

But the Mavericks performed better on the bench. Brandon White's hands were so hot that they could get hot when they hit.

The Mavericks were ahead in the first quarter, but just as the second quarter began, Brewer hit a three-pointer to help the Nuggets narrow the score gap.

In fact, compared to the beginning of the season, the Nuggets performed significantly differently during the rotation period.

First of all, the lineup adjustment. Farid actually doesn't have much time with the starting lineup. In the game, the Nuggets often play in first- and first- and fourth-sized games, so he will speed up with the rotation lineup, and the effect is quite good.

After Xiang Chu appeared again, the scores of the two teams became stalemate.

The main reason is Nowitzki's touch, and he is really not easy to defend against when shooting from outside.

His height and style of play are not just that the Nuggets are not easy to defend, but other teams in the league are not easy to defend. If King No was not injured this season, even if his strength was not as good as his peak, the Mavericks would not have been so bad in the West and would not even be able to enter the playoffs.

When he played more than half of the second quarter, Brewer made another three-pointer and the Nuggets took the lead.

But unexpectedly, the team had a situation in a flash. Gallinari had severe sprained his left knee during the breakthrough and could not stand and leave the court on the spot.

Tai Lawson was recovering from his injury, and Garlinari was injured again, and the Nuggets' outside line suddenly lost their attack power.

Players like Brewer cannot do the main attacking point, so he must have teammates beside him to attract defense.

When the team was in a difficult situation, Old Miller performed well, and his family was like a treasure.

His three-point shooting ability is not good, and the Mavericks basically let him go, but Old Miller is not afraid of taking action. In the last minute of the first half, he hit a three-pointer with Xiang Chu scored inside.

The Nuggets scored 5 points in a row at the last moment, not allowing the Mavericks to take the lead into the halftime break.

Gallinari's situation is a bit serious, at least it is impossible to come back this game.

George Carl let Brewer start in the second half, but the offensive burden was put on Xiang Chu.

"It's okay, I will beat their inside line. Our home court will always be the strongest." Xiang Chu Langsheng encouraged his teammates.

In the second half, Xiang Chu played more aggressively. The team was in trouble. As the team leader, he had to carry the team up. No one could escape from Pepsi Center.

Xiang Chu kept playing hard in the inside, low post, dunks, and rebounds in the frontcourt, making Kaman breathless.

When Kaman made a fourth foul, the Mavericks simply replaced him and started a small lineup.

The Mavericks' transition was very successful this time. Nowitzki, Carter and Morrow all made three-pointers. The Mavericks entered the final quarter with a 7-point lead with a bombardment in the last three minutes.

Losing is nothing, even if the Nuggets lose less at home, there is no way to do anything.

But Xiang Chu was just unhappy, and his teammates were injured, and he felt very upset if he won the victory.

He said seriously: "Coach, let me go up early, I have no problem."

George Carl is actually considering that the Nuggets' home advantage in the playoffs is not stable, and he doesn't want to lose a home court.

On the court, the Mavericks substitute Jay Claude hit another three-pointer, and the Nuggets were in trouble.

George Carl gritted his teeth and replaced Xiang Chu in advance.

Xiang Chu got a frontcourt rebound and announced the Nuggets' counterattack with a dunk.

The Mavericks were of course very careful about him, but Brandon White couldn't stop him at all.

One round, Xiang Chu grabbed the frontcourt rebound and scored again, and then assisted Fournier to score. The gap between the two sides suddenly narrowed to only 1 point.

The Mavericks quickly requested a pause. After Carlisle was struggling for a while, he changed Carman.

Because he felt that Xiang Chu seemed to be even more fierce in the final quarter, their small lineup could not grab the rebounds at all. If this continues, don’t play anymore, Xiang Chu can handle them alone.

Kaman couldn't defend against Xiang Chu, but at least he was taller and had weight, so he wouldn't let Xiang Chu do whatever he wanted.

However, Kaman made another foul after more than a minute, and five fouls were committed.

The Mavericks were nothing at this time, so they just beat the ball. If Kaman was punished, they would play a small lineup, so Carlisle deliberately told Kaman not to retreat, and how to defend or how to defend.

Both sides were ignited at this time, and no one wanted to fail.

Carlisle began to adjust frequently, using a small lineup when attacking, and allowing Carman to play when defense.

Darren Collison played the role of a surprise player, scoring 4 points in a row, but they couldn't defend against the Nuggets, Xiang Chu and Lao Miller scored 2 points, and the score gap between the two sides still remained unchanged.

When the last minute entered, Xiang Chu got another frontcourt rebound, and the Nuggets overtook the ball with two points without any doubt.

"Carter is not afraid of danger, good ball, Carter made a mid-range shot, and the Mavericks took the lead again."

"The atmosphere is so tense that it's suffocating. The Nuggets' home spectators are a little afraid to watch... Iguodala broke through and nowski blocked the ball, and nowski tried his best."

"Brewer's steal, Nowitzki, who had just successfully blocked, made a mistake... The ball was in Xiang Chu's hands. Before the Mavericks had time to switch back to Kaman this time, Moro hugged the person directly. There was no way, and the ball would definitely be scored without a foul."

"Xiang Chu's free throw is not bad among the inside players, and his 78% shooting percentage is also fourth in the Nuggets. He scored the first goal... and his free throw at the critical moment was very stable. The second goal... also scored the Nuggets took the lead again, and there were only 9.8 seconds left."

"The Mavericks' last attack was not given to Nowitzki, and Anthony Moro made a mid-range shot... Unfortunately, it was a little short of it. The Nuggets narrowly defeated by 1 point. They defended their home court again, and they deserved to be the Pepsi Center, which is known as the Devil's home court." 6
