The Thunder brother has obviously "bought off" many times in the second round of the NBA playoffs G4, which made Jokic feel frustrated

On the 12th, Beijing time, the Nuggets lost to the Thunder in the second round of the NBA playoffs in the Western Conference G4, and the series was tied 2:2, and in the state of unsatisfactory shooting rates of both sides, the Thunder's brother "SGA" Kyrgyz Alexander scored 25 points on 9 of 12 free throws, but he obviously "bought fouls" many times in the game, which made Nuggets MVP center Jokic feel frustrated.

Kyrgyzstan Alexander cut into the box and Jokic followed

In fact, Jokic made more free throws than Kyrgyz-Alexander today, but at the end of the second quarter of the game, "SGA" cut into the box and hit Jokic and bounced off himself to cause a foul. The helpless Jokic then did the same, making a foul in the restricted area and throwing it away, but the referee only gave a foul in front of his hand, making Jokic dumbfounded on the spot.

After the game, Nuggets acting head coach Alderman admitted after the game that he knew Jokic was frustrated by the referee's decision, "When he took a sinking defense, the opponent cut into the layup and made contact, and the referee blew for a foul." As a significantly taller centre-forward, he suffers the same level of physical contact in the penalty area without a whistle. ”

As for Kyrgyz Alexander's signature "buying foul", Alderman bluntly said: "If SGA is allowed to use his non-ball handler to exert force, and he is really good at it, then we hope that the referee will at least allow us to use our bodies to influence him when defending." This should be fair on both sides, he is already difficult enough to prevent, he is simply a master of buying criminals. ”

Alderman also emphasized that while Jokic was frustrated by the whistle, he believed Jokic would find a solution on his own, "He watches the game like the coaching staff, and we talk about how to finish the offense under the basket and finish the movement in the physical confrontation." ”
