Chapter 232 Still a Crucial Moment

Alliance Group, Pooh DeNagro: "My God, haven't the Nuggets won this feeling? The Hornets are too good!"

Tyrone Corbin: "As far as the Nuggets feel today, I don't think even the Bulls can win. They actually lost to the Hornets!"

Lionel Hollins: "Presti called a few timeouts in time, otherwise the Hornets would not have won today's game"

Tyrone Corbin: "Yes, plus the adjustment is quick after the timeout. The Hornets missed a man once in the fourth quarter, and they never missed a man after the timeout!"

George Karl: "Here I come! This hornet is too perverted, we have never played with such a touch!"

Lionel Hollins: "See, the Nuggets feel like the Hornets can beat you today!"

George Karl: "It's all right now. I feel that I didn't win against the sky, but the Hornets won. Now the confidence of the Hornets players can't be suppressed!"

Lionel Hollins: "Haha, hand in your guns!"

........................

Fan forum, Grizzlies fans: "The Hornets are too buggy! Can't the Nuggets win like this?"

Clippers fans: "The Hornets also feel good!"

Lakers fans: "They don't feel good, mainly because the Nuggets can't defend well!"

Pacers fans: "In the end, the referee grabbed the show and the Nuggets didn't win. The Hornets are really a top team. This year's champion, I think there is a high probability that it will be the Hornets!"

Thunder fans: "We like Presti, but don't underestimate our Thunder! Besides, the Thunder is a team built by Presti!"

Heat fans: "Although we lost to the Hornets in the regular season, there is no need to underestimate us! We have James, Wade, and Bosh!"

........................

In the NBA President's Office, Xiao Hua was full of admiration and said: "The Hornets are really an excellent team. Normally, in the last few whistles, other teams would have panicked!"

Big Westen also laughed: "Indeed, the next game between the Nuggets and the Hornets will be normal. The Nuggets feel like they didn't win, and there is no hope at all in the future."

Xiao Hua nodded.

The next day, Presti and the team headed to Denver early in the morning. The plateau climate had to be adapted early!In case the Nuggets feel hot again and are in this plateau environment, it is difficult to guarantee that the players will still have the same mentality as yesterday.

However, it is a good thing that the game was so anxious yesterday. The Hornets played too many three-quarter check-ins, and they will almost not be able to play critical moments. This is very dangerous, because in the playoffs, the opponents are stronger, and the probability of hitting critical moments will be greater.

And because of yesterday's game, the players not only increased their confidence, but also made them handle the ball more clearly when facing critical moments, reduce mistakes, and win the game.
After the game last night, the players took the initiative to practice more, and they no longer had the laughing and arrogant expressions before!But very serious and serious training.

On May 5th, the Pepsi Center Arena ushered in the third game of the series between the Nuggets and the Hornets!
This game can be said to be the last stand of the Nuggets. Once this game is lost, the hope of advancing to the next round is basically shattered, because in the history of the NBA, only Presti has achieved a 3:0 comeback!

Presti was very satisfied when he saw the confident expression of the players. Although the players also showed confident expressions before, today, apart from the confidence, the players are more serious and serious, rather than laughing and belittling their opponents in the game.

The Pepsi Center was full of Nuggets fans. Although they knew that there was a huge gap in strength between them and the Hornets, they still felt hopeful after watching yesterday's game.
Soon the competition began under the much-anticipated!

Although it was an away game, David West's jumper and Paul George's breakthrough layup gave the Hornets a head start!

The Nuggets started in a mediocre state, and it was not until Faried's free throw broke through the past 2 minutes!
The players showed good touch at the beginning. Thompson and Curry scored three-pointers each, and Paul George also scored three-pointers later.

As the core of the offensive end, Gallinari carried the Nuggets' offense. He scored 5 points to help the team catch up with the score by constantly attacking the basket.But the Hornets were more aggressive. Thompson made two three-pointers to extinguish the Nuggets' counterattack. In the final stage, Gallinari still made free throws to chase points. After the first quarter, the Hornets led the Nuggets 30-24!

In the competition between the two sides' rotating lineups in the second quarter, the feel of the two teams dropped sharply at the beginning. In the first 2 minutes, the Hornets only scored 1 point by free throws!The Nuggets relied on Andre Miller to get 2 points.

However, it was the Nuggets who broke the deadlock first. Harrington scored consecutive jump shots and led the team to a 9-0 offensive to complete the overtake!Jimmy Butler's timely goal helped the Spurs stop the bleeding!

Gordon also hit a jumper afterwards.Both teams took the lead in the final stage of the confrontation between the two sides. The Hornets relied on Curry's key three-pointer at the last moment to hold the lead. After halftime, the Hornets led the Nuggets 53-45 and entered the second half.

At the beginning of the second half, Curry and Paul George scored first, and Gallinari responded with consecutive jump shots!
However, as the game progressed, the Hornets gradually took control of the situation. Paul George continued to grab points in a hot state. Jimmy Butler then made a three-point foul and made three free throws to expand the lead to double digits!

At the end of the second half, the two sides changed into a rotation lineup again. The sporadic offense of the Nuggets could not create a threat at all, and the Hornets relied on Gordon's three-pointer to play a wave of 7-0 offensive and continue to increase their lead!
Harrington's explosion at the end helped the Nuggets stop the bleeding. He made consecutive long shots and scored a layup. He scored 7 points alone to help the Nuggets recover the score slightly. After three quarters, the Hornets led the Nuggets 79-70!

At the beginning of the last quarter, Gallinari and Lawson led the team to counterattack. The two scored 10 points together in the start. The Nuggets chased the point difference to 5 points and saw hope!At this time Presti replaced the main force!
Paul George and Curry hit consecutive key goals to help the Hornets stop the bleeding!However, the Nuggets feel open and still maintain the momentum of chasing points. Faried's tip-up and Afflalo free throws for the team to bite the score!

With Gallinari hitting a key three-pointer, the Nuggets chased the point difference to 1 point!The game has come to a critical moment again!

At the critical moment, Presti paused to emphasize defense and oppress the ball holder!And put on a lineup of Curry, Thompson, Jimmy Butler, Paul George, and Whiteside. After a timeout, they faced the Hornets' defense, and the Nuggets misfired!

The Hornets regained a 6-point lead by relying on Paul George's free throws that kept killing the inside and making fouls!
With Curry hitting a fatal three-pointer, the Hornets opened the score and established the victory.

In the end, the Hornets beat the Nuggets 100-88 away!The Hornets lead the series with a big score of 3:0!
　Brothers, today is not normal, there are so few recommended tickets, and the monthly pass is gone, fighting every day until midnight, crying!
