Whether they can overcome the impact of the plateau away games tomorrow deserves attention.
After Dillon joined the Suns, he averaged 21.5 points in two games and became the team's offensive weapon. However, in tomorrow's battle with the Nuggets, the Suns' interior defense will be a huge challenge. Ma Wei has just returned to the game after recovering from injury, and his competitive status is still adjusting. As a new player, Maluachi is still adapting to the rhythm of the NBA. Whether Maluac and Mawe can limit Jokic and Gordon will be the key to the Suns' victory.
The Nuggets faced the Warriors in the opening game, but were reversed by their opponents in the overtime, and suffered a tragic comeback at the beginning. However, in this fierce battle, Aaron Gordon scored 50+ points and became the most outstanding player on the offensive end of the Nuggets. Murray contributed 25 points and 10 assists, and Jokic had a triple-double of 21 points, 13 rebounds and 10 assists. However, he only made 2 of 13 three-pointers from beyond the arc. Hardaway Jr. came on as a reserve and scored 10 points. His addition gave the Nuggets an attacking edge in their rotation. The arrival of Valanciunas gave Jokic a chance to breathe, but he only played 12 minutes in the last game and contributed 8 points.
Tomorrow's battle with the Suns will see the Nuggets all strong, and the inside will be their main advantage. The inside rotation of Jokic and Valanciunas will pose a great threat to the Suns. The Nuggets still have to pay attention to Booker and Dillon's attacks on the defensive end. Once Booker starts to control the ball, the team will become passive again.
The two teams met four times in the regular season last season, and the Nuggets achieved a record of 3 wins and 1 loss. The Nuggets, who are aiming to break out of the Western Conference and compete for the championship this season, must hope to win the first home game and avoid a losing streak. The Suns are playing back-to-back games and do not expect to be defeated by their opponents continuously. 6686 Sports, October 25th The NBA regular season will continue tomorrow.
