In the previous game when the Nuggets defeated the Clippers, Jokic played 33 minutes and 34 seconds, making 18 of 23 shots, 5 of 6 three-pointers, 14 of 16 free throws, scoring 55 points, 12 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.

In this regard, Chasing Dream Green commented: "The opponent's strategy is to let him score and cut off his passing route. This strategy may sometimes work. I remember there was a data a few years ago, but I forgot the specific indicators, but at that time, if Jokic's assists could be limited, If it's less than 6 times, their winning rate will be very low, so the goal at that time is to limit his assists. It doesn't matter if he scores 40 points, but 55 points is different from 40 points. After all, I think you have to have someone who can cause him trouble. It's the defender. I didn't watch the game, so I can't say that the defensive players didn't cause him trouble. "But do I like this strategy? I don't like the strategy of letting anyone score 55 points. But I want to tell you, when we played against the Rockets. Some players have used it. We'll say, 'Let James Harden score 40 points or 50 points. ' And we can win the game. So I just didn't know if it would work for Jokic."source:7m cn free
