Jokic responds with a triple-double to the stupid criticism of his statistics

Just for commenting once and getting on with a more colorful life. During the last week some criticism has been leveled about the activity of Nikola Jokic in the NBA, something that the Serbian – with his usual sarcasm for this type of story – has also highlighted only in passing and because he was asked for his opinion. The controversy has focused on pointing out that the pivot “inflates statistics” to add triple-double matches. We are talking about a boy who, at 28 years old, has already been MVP of this tournament twice, is the one who currently holds the honor, and who has led Denver to the conference finals in the last five years of dominance. What better way to respond than in two ways: the first, with another performance of these characteristics, with 18 points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists through 7/10 field goals and 4/6 free throws, in the duel at the top of the West; the second, expanding to 29, the longest streak in history, the consecutive games won by his team when he made a triple-double. poetic justice they call it. Nikola, a lyrical artisan against those who despise the word. The Nuggets beat the Grizzlies with the message to all the rivals who want their position, the first in the conference, and that of their star to those who accuse him of manipulating the data to be better in the individual plot. Denver is a real team, with a leader who plays for everyone, and it shows again, at least in normal seasonof which we are talking about one of the favorites for everything in this 2022/23 season.

The locals were transformed in the last quarter. That’s where they made the difference. From a match of ups and downs that had ended with an 80-80 at the end of the first three sets, it went to a partial of 33-17 in the fourth. Two pushes to emphasize: six points in a row from Murray and an assist for a triple from Pope; shot from three by Murray, collective defense to a layup attempt by Morant, triple with additional by Porter. With those blows of command, the Nuggets were enough to destroy the score in a few minutes and not suffer at the end. An exhibition of concentration, well connected with the public, in the moments in which the rival had to be suffocated. The Grizz, on a bad night for Spanish Santi Aldama (0/4 in shooting), only hit seven of their basket attempts in the last twelve minutes and left the total of the match in a bad 37%. Ja Morant, wearing a protective face mask, had 27 points and 10 assists. This victory for those from Colorado confirms them as the leader of the Western Conference for the coming days, since their distance with the Grizzlies is extended to seven points, and as a threat to those who want to assault the throne of the League from that part of the chart.
