The NBA playoffs in the 24-25 season have reached the semi-finals stage. The Nuggets and the Thunder have played three games. The Nuggets lead 2-1 in total. Under the operation of the incompetent general manager of the Nuggets, the competitiveness of the Nuggets has actually declined significantly compared to the championship season, but the lean camel is bigger than the horse. Although the Nuggets only have Jokic, an All-Star player, the Nuggets' combat power this year cannot be ignored. Don't be surprised if they really win the championship.

Jokic is of course the soul of this Nuggets. For the Nuggets, Jokic can be said to be both a father and a mother. With Jokic's bottom line, the Nuggets' lower limit is of course not low. Jokic also fell into a hard battle in the series against the Thunder. Faced with Harten, a blue-collar iron-blooded inside line, Jokic's scoring efficiency has also been reduced. However, Yoo's performance is still trustworthy at critical moments. If you want to defeat the Nuggets in the playoffs, you have to find ways to limit Jokic.

Murray and Gordon are Jokic's right-hand man. Needless to say, Murray's role in the Nuggets is also a headache for many teams. Although he has suffered a serious injury, Murray's recovery is still very good, and his mid- and long-distance shooting is also powerful.

Gordon doesn't look like he is not revealing, but he is an important core of the Nuggets. On the offensive end, he can break through and cause damage and hit some key three-point shots. Gordon has made a final shot more than once in the playoffs this year, and the trade is definitely the best operation in the Nuggets' history.

Potter Jr.'s performance was not very good in this year's playoffs. He also scored 21 points today due to a shoulder injury. Porter Jr.'s ultimate skill is to pull up and jump shots. As long as he finds the feel, the opponent will be in big trouble. Although his defensive ability is poor, he still has a certain deterrent effect on the opponent as long as he is on the court.

The Nuggets have also experienced some turmoil in the 24-25 season. It is a huge challenge for every team to retain a competitive lineup in the NBA. Can the Nuggets bring some surprises to fans in the 24-25 season?
