The Thunder and the Nuggets have finished the second round, and in this round of the series, it meets everyone's expectations. In fact, when this series started, everyone thought that this series would not end in a short period of time, which now proves this. So after this round of series, who is the winner and who is the loser? Let's take a look. The second round of Lei Jue ended, there was no better, and there was 2 losers and 4 winners were born, and one person raised the trend.

Loser 1, Nuggets. The Nuggets played tiebreakers for two consecutive rounds, which is a proof of their strength, and on the other hand, it shows that they are not sure of winning quickly in every round of the series. It can only be said that the Nuggets management is too blind and dismantled the championship lineup at will. If there were one or two slightly better substitutes this year, the Nuggets would not be so passive. Let’s see if the Nuggets will strengthen this offseason. If there are no substantial signings, don’t think about the future.

Loser II, Jokic. Jokic is at his peak and is also the number one player in the league at the moment. We have seen Jokic's playoff power, and it can be said to be a unique existence. It is precisely because of this that Jokic is the loser. Originally, it was the time to achieve results, but the Nuggets management was hard to describe. It can only be said that the Nuggets management cheated Jokic and wasted Jokic's peak period, which is quite sad.

Winner 1, Thunder. The Thunder won the series, and more importantly, they fought against experts like the Nuggets for 7 games, which also made the training of these young people very well. The Thunder played a real series, and the West would never have to adapt to the pace of the game. On the other hand, the Timberwolves' opponents were relatively weak in the first two rounds, and they had to adapt to the strength of the Thunder. In general, it is time for the Thunder to achieve results. If you win the championship this year, don’t be surprised.

Winner 2, Alexander. The player Alexander is really good, and the young man's superstar temperament is shown. In games like tiebreak, Alexander was able to keep shooting efficiently and scored 35 points. More importantly, Alexander won Jokic's Nuggets in this round. After Alexander led the team to advance, he also brought the team to a new level. For Alexander, he still has to continue to rush forward, and the future is also bright.

Winner 3, Westbrook. Although Westbrook did not turn the tide in this round of series, it raised its reputation. Anyone who has watched the game knows that Westbrook is still valuable. In fact, Westbrook has played the most comfortable game in the Nuggets in recent seasons. Of course, this also involves Jokic's fault tolerance, which gives Westbrook a space to play to his own. Let’s see if Westbrook will stay in the Nuggets next, after all, this year is also Westbrook’s contract year.

Winner 4, Caruso. To a certain extent, the eye of this round of competition is Caruso. Everyone who watched the game knew that as long as Caruso was present, the Thunder would look different. Not to mention other games, Caruso changed the game trend after he came on the field. Caruso's positive and negative values ​​reached +40 in the tiebreaker. It seems that Caruso only has 11 points, but his value is not reflected in the data, so I know this.

In short, if the Thunder wins the tiebreaker, as long as they can win the Timberwolves, this year's championship will be more secure. Let’s see how the Thunder will deal with the next game.
