Anthony played extremely well in this game, scoring 38 points, 5 assists and 3 rebounds.
Leonard, who was also in poor form in many games, also scored 29 points, becoming the second scorer for the Nuggets.
Many others scored in double digits.
Webber and Bibby both scored 30+ in this game for the Kings, but Bibby's physical condition at the critical moment and Webber's daily performance made these two 30+ data seem to be of little significance.
The fans in the Sleep Train Arena left the stadium one after another, and everyone's face was filled with disappointment and a sense of powerlessness.
Moreover, they will not be able to attend the next game to support. The next game is in Denver. Given the Kings' current state, can they bring the game back to Sacramento?
"With two home games in hand, we might be able to reach the Western Conference Finals."
Klask could no longer conceal his joy.
Wang Chen wanted to tell Krask not to be careless, but seeing everyone on the team celebrating and cheering, Wang Chen smiled and said nothing.
I still remember when I first took over the Nuggets, the Nuggets were still on the verge of elimination.......
Everyone was absent-minded and was about to give up.
Compared with the current team, where everyone is full of fighting spirit and has hope in their eyes, it really seems like two different teams.
Especially Anthony. The last time I saw Anthony, he was sitting on the bench dejectedly. Now Anthony has become the leader of this team among everyone.
The Nuggets are a team without a boss. Although it seems that Miller should be the boss of this team, rookie Anthony is the team's leading scorer, and Camby is also at the same level as Miller.
As for Leonard, he is just more adapted to the system of the former Nuggets coach Buzdelik.
Leaving Leonard aside, the three of them are at the level of stars.
But now, Anthony has begun to show the qualifications of a superstar, coupled with the importance of the new coach Wang Chen to Anthony.
In the playoffs, Anthony gradually became the new king of the Nuggets.
"It's pretty good."
Wang Chen smiled as he saw Anthony gradually becoming the core of the team. In fact, this was also the result of his deliberate guidance.
The Nuggets are still young, and it would be better for Anthony to be the leader. Miller and Kanbi are older, but their playing style is relatively low-key and simple, so they really can't be the leader.
Wang Chen also left the stadium, while thinking in his mind.
The next two home games are here. As long as they can defend any home game, this round of the series is basically stable.
He has a system. If he can be tied for three games in a row, he might as well stop being a coach and go wash dishes.......
Next day
《The Kings beat the Nuggets 118-137, lost to the Nuggets, lost two home games and fell behind 0-2》
《How far will the black eight go, Western Conference Finals?》
《Crazier than old Nelson, Wang Chen is a new scientist at the beginning of the century, defeating the Kings with a small lineup against the times》
《Camby alone carried the inside line, and the block maniac proved himself》
《Wang Chen led the Nuggets through a dream journey. Boykins said after the game: Thank you Wang Chen, let people like me shine in the playoffs.
The Nuggets won two games in a row against the Kings, which shocked everyone.
The Kings lost two home games, which actually means they have lost half of the game. The home court in the playoffs is very important.
The atmosphere on the scene adds to the morale, and the bias of the home court whistle is very important in the playoffs.
In the past two years, the Kings fought the peak OK combination for seven games until overtime, which shocked everyone at the time. Everyone was thinking whether the battle in the past two years would reappear this year.
But the Nuggets, a dark horse that is so dark that it is purple, told everyone, if you want to see the Kings fight OK?
Ask me if I agree first!
In addition to the Nuggets and the Kings, the other three duels were: Spurs 2-0 Lakers, Pacers 2-0 Heat, and Pistons 2-0 Nets.
The semifinals were all 2-0, but the difference is that the Spurs led by GDP, the Pacers led by Artest, Oreji Miller, and the Pistons Five Tigers, all of their 2-0s were defended at home.
It can be seen that even the Spurs 2-0 Lakers is not as hotly discussed as the Nuggets and Kings.
The Kings are the only team that lost two of their home games as a top team.
It can also be seen how difficult it is to win a home game in this era.......
The Lakers training gym.
Only sporadic footsteps could be heard in the training ground, and the training atmosphere of the entire team was very poor.
O'Neal didn't know where he went to hide and rest, or he didn't come at all.
Kobe was summoned by the court because of a scandal at this time and had no time to come to training.
The boss and the second in command were not there, so naturally the others were lazy, and even the coach Phil Jackson was not at the stadium.
In a team where the boss and the second in command have already broken down, who are you trying to show off to?
At this time, in the office of the Lakers head coach.
Knock knock knock
"Enter"
‘Phil Jackson, the Zen Master, was watching a video and answered casually.
Phil Jackson took a look and found that it was his assistant, so he asked casually,"Is Shaq (O'Neal) here today?"
"Not yet, and the others haven't trained too actively either."
The assistant answered honestly.
Phil Jackson just nodded and continued watching the video. He was used to it. Including this year, he has supported O'Neal for five years. He was infinitely tolerant of O'Neal, tolerated his laziness, tolerated his not participating in training, and helped O'Neal suppress the discordant voices in the team and let O'Neal be the boss. Doing these things is the beginning of the Lakers dynasty.
""Huh?"
The assistant was about to go out, but he accidentally saw the video that Phil Jackson was watching, which made the assistant suddenly surprised.
"You thought I would watch the video of the game against the Spurs?"
Phil Jackson glanced at his assistant with a half-smile.
"yes......"
The assistant was seen through and said with some embarrassment.
After all, the team was still 0-2 behind. He noticed that Phil Jackson did not study the opponent Spurs, but watched the Nuggets and Kings game video.
However, Phil Jackson has always been mysterious, so the assistant did not dare to say much, otherwise why is he nicknamed"Zen Master"?
"I have already thought of a solution for Popovich. Now I have free time.
Phil Jackson smiled and looked at Wang Chen on the screen:"This young man is quite interesting."
"Ah? Are you talking about Wang Chen, who is known as the second old Nelson?"
The assistant asked curiously.
Phil Jackson is usually very mysterious, but sometimes he still communicates with his assistant. What a coincidence that Phil Jackson also became interested.
"The second Don Nelson? Let me ask you, which lineup do you think is more competitive, the Mavericks or the Nuggets?"
Phil Jackson said with a smile.
Old Nelson is the coach of the Mavericks.
The Mavericks have a lineup of Nowitzki, Nash, Finley, Fat Head Walker, Josh Howard, and Antawn Jamison this year.
Compared with the Nuggets, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is luxurious. Isn't Nowitzki's four forwards better than the rookie Anthony?
Not to mention a group of helpers. The Nuggets don't have many decent ones. Anderson, who plays well, was discovered by Wang Chen.
"The Mavericks are more competitive, right?"
The assistant thought for a while and said.
Phil Jackson didn't say anything, just smiled and looked at the assistant.
"Oh, I see."
The assistant suddenly realized.
The Mavericks were eliminated 1-4 in the first round against the Kings, while the Nuggets not only defeated the Timberwolves in the eighth place, but also defeated the Kings at home twice.
In this comparison, it seems clear who is stronger between Nelson and Wang Chen.......
"This young man is quite interesting. I wonder if we will meet in the Western Conference Finals."
Phil Jackson turned his eyes back to the game video and said to himself.
