The total score of 3:0 is undoubtedly a huge burden for the Nuggets, not just as simple as having a monkey on the back. Almost no one is optimistic that the Nuggets can win this series. In other words, what the Nuggets need is to try to save face as much as possible and win the next game instead of being swept away.

On April 2009, 4, the Denver Nuggets played at the Pepsi Center.

In the fourth game between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs, the loss of the first three games made this undoubtedly a battle for the Nuggets to defend their dignity. The hat started the offseason, and the rhetoric before the start of the series has long been laughed at. If it is swept now, it will undoubtedly make the Nuggets worse.

"Although the morale of the Nuggets team has been completely bursting to the point where it is now, fighting for honor has become their biggest idea, but after losing three games in a row, they are basically standing on the edge of vacation. Big burden game, but the Los Angeles Clippers are obviously on the contrary 54 points showed a huge loophole. On the contrary, according to statistics, Tyson Chandler further improved his defensive efficiency in the playoffs. Compared with the regular season, Cameron's performance in the three games can only be said to be average. If he still can't show his strength today, the Nuggets are likely to start their vacation with a four-game losing streak, and Cameron will also get his fifth first-round exit. Under the leadership, they are eager to advance, and their strong desire to advance will allow them to continue their hard work. I feel that this game will be a fierce game.” This is the game analyzed by Jeff Van Gundy in the pre-match commentary.

The game kicked off quickly, and the progress of the game fully complied with Van Gundy's prediction for the game. The Nuggets refused to be swept by the Clippers. into huge trouble.

When halftime is over, people will be surprised to find that Lin Fei's shooting percentage is only 40.00%. You must know that Lin Fei's shooting percentage in the regular season is as high as 50.00%. Even in the first three games of this series, Lin Fei still has a 50.00% shooting percentage The hit rate dropped by a full [-]%. It is conceivable how much defensive pressure Lin Fei was under.

But this 40.00% three-point shooting rate is already the highest of the two teams among players who have taken more than four shots. The defensive pressure of the game can be imagined.

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

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

"Mark, did you find a pattern?" Van Gundy turned his head to Jackson and said.

"What rules? Iron rules?" Mark Jackson made a joke with a blank face.

"It's just that the Clippers' substitutes always have someone to stand up and become Lin's biggest helper. The first game was Wilson Chandler. He stood up from the bench and got 18+7+5 that the main players may not necessarily get. The data is the best performing player other than Lin Fei, and in the second game, JR Smith faced his old club. He scored 6 three-pointers in the second game, which is the most three-pointers in the last minute of the two teams. Even more deadly, he also scored 1 points, the highest score except for Lin Fei. In the third game, another substitute player stepped forward. Rookie Mario Chalmers, he seemed born for the playoffs and did not Because it was his debut season, he was nervous in the playoffs. He played well in the first two games, and in the third game, he sent 24 assists on the bench, one more than the starter Andre Miller, and made a goal. Scored 10 three-pointers, now it is the fourth game and no one is outstanding in the first half, and Mario's performance is very different from the third game, even a little bad, if it is really a pattern, I wonder who will stand up from the bench Van Gundy’s analysis made Mark Jackson smile knowingly. The Clippers’ bench is undoubtedly strong, but it’s not as good as Van Gundy said. If it’s true, he really hopes that the one who stands up will come early to save his poor ears.

The 20-minute intermission passed quickly, and the players from both sides appeared again. The Nuggets first attacked. Anthony used his big butt against Artest to receive the ball, then turned around and rushed inside to put the ball into the basket. .

"Good job, Cameron should be like this. He has so many offensive skills that the number of people is innumerable. He really shouldn't be obsessed with his own shooting. This kind of attack inside is definitely a smart and rational choice. If the Nuggets want to You can't win without him."

And Anthony opened up his arsenal as the Nuggets fans expected, making the Clippers' defense miserable. The sluggish shooting rate in the first half completely disappeared and turned into how to play. When the game progressed to the third quarter In the 4th minute, the Clippers got even more bad news. Andre Miller sprained his ankle while defending Billups and had to leave the field early. This scene gave the Nuggets hope.

"Does God want to see the Nuggets win? Andre Miller's injury is a huge blow to the Clippers. Mario performed very badly in this game. Can he be replaced by Goran Dragic at this time? Qi to try, or use Lin to directly handle the ball and organize the offense?" Van Gundy raised his own doubts.

"Mario, take a break first, Golan, you go on the court." Mike Dunleavy first comforted Chalmers with a simple sentence. Logically, he, the first backup point guard, should replace the injured Miller, but now De La It was inevitable that Ji Qi felt a little bit disappointed when he got involved.

Dragic, on the other hand, was a little surprised. He played very little time in this series and never expected to play now, but he was not nervous like a rookie but excited in his heart.

"Lin broke through the defense and faced Nene...he chose to pass the ball, a 45-degree chance for Goran Dragic!" Following Jackson's passionate commentary, Dragic faced the hurried defense after receiving the ball. Billups came and shot.

Swish!
The basketball fell into the net cleanly, and this was his fourth consecutive three-pointer.

"It's unbelievable. Mike Dunleavy made an excellent substitution. Goran Dragic is not like a rookie at all. He seems to have an innate big heart. He scored four consecutive three-pointers and was obviously stunned." The Nuggets, obviously they can't accept the fact that Karl's timeout is necessary and they must strengthen their defense against Golan."

The score on the field has become 55:57, and the Clippers have fallen behind by [-] points from the most to only two points behind.

When the Nuggets came back from the timeout, they were surprised to find Dragic on the other side. "The weird breakthrough, Golan seemed to have read the Nuggets' defense in advance, it was simply an acrobatic goal."

At this time, people remembered the rule that Van Gundy said. When the third quarter ended, the away Clippers overtook the score by 7 points, and Dragic was undoubtedly the biggest contributor. He contributed 7 points in just 20 minutes in the third quarter. At [-] points, Dragic's outburst not only successfully withstood the counterattack of the Nuggets, but also dealt a severe blow to the confidence of the Nuggets.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Dragic explained what a point guard is. Under his organization, the Clippers' bench was rejuvenated again. The cold feeling in the first half disappeared completely, and the Nuggets undoubtedly became the biggest victim.

At 83:73, the Clippers won by [-] points. When the whistle sounded for the end of the game, Lin Fei saw the unwillingness in Anthony's eyes, but everything had become a fact.

4:0, the Clippers completed a sweep. Except for the substitute who stood up in four games, the biggest contributor to the Nuggets in this series was Lin Fei. He averaged 30.5 points, 6.5 assists, 6.0 rebounds, and 2.5 assists in four games. Steals and blocks, the overall shooting rate as high as 1%, four games to the Nuggets 52.4 three-pointers, the Clippers became the first team to advance to the semifinals of the division, and it was the first time in three years Into the division semifinals.

For the Nuggets, the rhetoric before the start of the playoffs has become the biggest irony, and they have also become the first team in NBA history to achieve 50 victories in the regular season and advance to the playoffs but were swept in the first round. Team.

Tonight is undoubtedly a happy night for Clippers fans, but it is undoubtedly a lost night for Nuggets fans.

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

After the victory was swept away, Lin Feidi became in a very good mood, "I am very lucky, our whole team is well integrated, this game is not only about qualifying, but also for us, it shows that our entire team progress, last year we failed, this year we made it."

"Golan's performance is amazing, I seem to see him wearing the number 23 jersey, I am happy and proud of him, but the victory of the game belongs to everyone in the team, we are united, we will implement Mike's tactics to the best That's the key to winning the game."

The loser was naturally very disappointed, especially when his rhetoric became a great irony, but after the game, Anthony seemed to have matured suddenly and did not escape or lose his mind, "The result is very disappointing, I don't know what to say specifically , or review something, I only know that we failed without any reason, I will not blame anyone including myself, I will look forward and will always keep this game in my mind, I still have a lot to do I can improve a lot, I will start again and come back next year. Bless Lin and his Clippers, hope they go further, preferably champions.”

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