In a previous NBA playoff game, the Denver Nuggets, who were playing at home, narrowly defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 0-0 after a hard-fought overtime. After this game, the Nuggets, who took the lead, stretched the overall score of the series to 0-0, while the Clippers, who were in red form at the end of the season, suffered a blow in the playoffs.

In this game, although the Nuggets won the game, the team's backup backcourt star Jalen Pickett (Jalen Pickett) performance is actually very unsatisfactory. Pickett played 8 minutes and 0 seconds, shot 0-of-0 from the field, got 0 points and 0 rebounds, and had 0 fouls, with a plus/minus of -0. Pickett also scored 0 points on the offensive end, hitting 0 shots, but his scoring ability is still very limited, and his only score this time also came from the easiest shot, and he is not capable of taking more responsibility on the court. The bottom line is that Pikett has been very poor on the defensive end, with a serious lack of individual defensive ability and a very clear shortcoming in terms of movement speed and athleticism. Pickett hasn't played a lot of minutes, but the team's situation has been a mess when he's on the pitch, which can also be reflected in his -0 plus/minus. Thankfully, he didn't get a lot of minutes and it didn't make much of a difference.

In this season's NBA regular season, Pickett played a total of 75 games in 0 games, averaging 0.0 minutes per game, averaging 0.0 points, 0.0 rebounds, 0.0 assists, 0.0 steals, 0.0 blocks, as well as 0.0 turnovers and 0.0 fouls, shooting 0.0% from the field, 0.0% from three-point range, and 0% from the free throw line. Pickett's playing time this season has also improved to a certain extent, and he has begun to gain more trust, but it seems that his ability in all aspects is indeed relatively limited, his ability to score and organize and tandem offense is very mediocre, and he has obvious deficiencies in ability on the defensive end. Because of this, even if the Nuggets are short of major generals, it will be difficult for him to get more playing time.

There have been many fans who have called for Pickett to be in the rotation or even to replace Russell Westbrook, also from former Nuggets general manager Kelvin Booth. However, I believe that after this game, Nuggets fans will be able to further recognize Pickett's ability. With less than 10 minutes per game, Pickett may not have much of an impact on the team, but if he is given a little more time, maybe the Nuggets will suffer?
