Alexander was deterred! The overall state of the Nuggets flank gate has also recovered significantly?

In the previous NBA Western Conference semi-finals G3, the Denver Nuggets, who returned to their home games, defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder 113-104 after a hard battle in overtime, widening the total score of the series to 2-1, and once again gained the advantage in this round of series.

In this game, the Nuggets' starting shooting guard Christian Braun's performance was also considered to be average. Braun played 43 minutes in the game, made 3 of 8 shots and 2 of 6 shots from outside the three-point line, scored 8 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks, and had 1 turnover and 5 fouls, with a plus-negative value of +6. Braun maintained a certain touch on the offensive end and won a lot of points with limited tactical status. The most important thing is that Braun’s performance on the defensive end is also worthy of recognition. He also showed a high defensive enthusiasm and caused considerable trouble to his opponents. Although Braun's data is not particularly outstanding, he also effectively restricted Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's performance, resulting in Alexander's failure to display his value at all. He also made a significant contribution to the team's victory, and his value is also something that his data cannot reflect.

In the NBA regular season this season, Braun played a total of 79 games in 82 games, averaging 33.9 minutes per game, averaging 15.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.5 blocks, and 1 turnover and 2.2 fouls. He shot 58% from the field, 39.7% from three-point shooting percentage and 82.7% from free throws. In the playoffs, Braun averaged 38.5 minutes in the first 10 games, with an average of 11 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.9 steals, 0.6 blocks, and 0.8 turnovers and 3.3 fouls. He shot 46.4%, three-point shooting percentage 30.8%, and free throw shooting percentage 53.3%.

Braun's overall performance in the playoffs is actually worthy of recognition. He has good offensive efficiency on the offensive end, and he has always been able to maintain sufficient competitiveness on the defensive end. The team's current record with a small number of rotational teams is also closely related to Braun's performance. However, Braun's performance in G2 in this round of series was very disappointing. He shot 1 of 6 shots and 1 of 4 shots from outside the three-point line during the 26 minutes and 20 seconds of playing time, scored 3 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block, and had 2 turnovers and 3 fouls. The plus and negative values ​​were lower than the lowest level of -40 in the game. Braun's poor performance also largely led to the team's miserable defeat. In this game, Braun's recovery in form also made a huge contribution to the team's competitiveness. Perhaps Braun's performance will also greatly affect the team's prospects in this round of the series?
