The weaknesses have been further magnified! Are the Thunder s inside star really not adapting to the intensity of the playoffs?

Basketball

In the previous NBA Western Conference semi-finals G4, the Oklahoma City Thunder defeated the Denver Nuggets who played at home 92-87 after a hard battle. After this game, the Thunder tied the total score of the series to 2-2, and both sides returned to the same starting line. Moreover, the Thunder also regained their home advantage after this game and regained the initiative in the series.

In this game, the performance of Thunder's starting lineman Chet Holmgren is obviously unsatisfactory. Chet played 29 minutes and 20 seconds in the game, made 4 of 10 shots, 0 of 3 from outside the three-point line, scored 8 points and 13 rebounds, and had 2 turnovers and 3 fouls, with a plus-minus value of -7. Chet still couldn't find his touch and game feeling on the offensive end, and his scoring ability was not fully utilized. He did not give enough support to the team on the offensive end. Chet's performance on the defensive end is also unsatisfactory, his defensive effect is also very poor, and his disadvantages in confrontational ability have been magnified again. Although the Thunder won the game, it is obvious that Chet once again dragged the team down. With his ability and in the regular season, he should have done better on both offense and defense.

In the NBA regular season this season, Chett played 32 games in total, with averaging 32 minutes per game, with averaging 15 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 0.7 steals and 2.2 blocks, and 1.8 turnovers and 2.3 fouls. He shot 49%, three-point shooting percentage 37.9%, and free throw shooting percentage 75.4%. In the playoffs, Chet averaged 28.3 minutes in the first eight games, with averaging 29.9 minutes per game, averaging 15.9 points, 9.6 rebounds, 0.9 assists, 2.5 blocks, and 1.3 turnovers and 2 fouls. He shot 41.8%, three-point shooting percentage 34.1%, and free throw shooting percentage 83.8%.

Chett's performance during the playoffs was obviously relatively average, and his offensive efficiency also showed a significant decline compared to the regular season stage, and his effect on the court was also relatively average. Chet looks good on the defensive end, but at least in this round of the series, his influence on the game is relatively limited. Chet should be a key figure in the team, and he is also able to play greater value on both offense and defense, but his disadvantages in physical and confrontational abilities have been completely amplified. For Chet, his performance in the playoffs this season should also inspire him. If he wants to show his value on the more competitive playoff stage, he must find a way to significantly improve his weaknesses this summer.
