Jokic played for 20 minutes and recorded 6 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists, which isn't bad, but he got exploited several times defensively against Harden, causing some outside doubts about his defensive abilities.
Compared to Jokic, Zeng Xingyang was the more dazzling one.
Zeng Xingyang had a really good touch tonight, though of course, this was also because the Rockets didn't pay much attention to his defense.
Compared to other Nuggets players, the Rockets were unfamiliar with Zeng Xingyang. Even if he was outstanding in college, he was just a rookie, a relatively unknown player in the NBA.
The Rockets didn't expect Zeng Xingyang's offense to be so explosive.
If there was an open shot, he made it.
Despite the good personal stats, Zeng Xingyang wasn't particularly happy because the team lost, and he wasn't on the court in the last five minutes, feeling powerless.
