On May 19, the Nuggets defeated the Thunder in the away game in the NBA playoffs in seventh tie, and were eliminated 3-4 in total. After the game, Westbrook and Murray both laughed and congratulated Alexander, while Jokic hugged his opponent and left the court in disappointment.
in the tiebreak, the Nuggets led by 11 points in the first quarter, but then the Nuggets were beaten by the Thunder, lost 19 points in the second quarter 20-39, and lost 11 points in the third quarter 26-37, and fell 25 points behind after the third quarter. In the final quarter, the Nuggets were led by the Thunder to more than 30 points. With 9 minutes and 36 seconds left in the game, the Nuggets withdrew from their main force and surrendered in advance. In the end, the Nuggets lost 32 points in a crushing defeat of 93-125, and fell behind by 43 points at most. In the last quarter, Jokic, Gordon and others sat on the bench with despair. In this game, Gordon suffered a second-degree hamstring strain and still insisted on playing. He started for 24 minutes, scored 8 points and 11 rebounds on 2 of 4 shots, and was moved by the tragic exit; Jokic made 5 of 9 shots and scored 20 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists, and made 5 mistakes, plus or negative values -23, completely defended by the Thunder. After the G7 game, Murray and Westbrook both grinned when hugging Alexander. Their laughter caused heated discussion; Jokic hugged Alexander and other Thunder players with a serious face, and then left the court in disappointment. In an interview after the game, when talking about whether the Nuggets have the ability to win the championship, Jokic said: I mean, we didn't do it, and I don't like to talk about the topic of 'if'.
Jokic also said that he will drink a lot of beer next.
Nuggets team reporter Vinny Benedetto reported: I wanted to find Westbrook in the locker room and see if he decided to execute the player options for next season. He looked at his watch and asked me what I was going to wear tomorrow. I said I didn't know yet, and he said 'yes' and left.
Westbrook has a $3.47 million player option next season, and he needs to decide whether to execute the player option before June 30.
The Nuggets' season has ended. What operations will the Nuggets make this summer? Let's wait and see.
