Campazzo’s Denver surprised by Philadelphia

The point guard Tyrese Maxey, before the loss of Australian All-Star Ben Simmons, turned out to be the surprise factor of the Philadelphia Sixers, who beat the Denver Nuggets 103-89 on the road this Thursday. Maxey scored 22 points, guard Seth Curry added 20 and the Sixers snapped a five-game losing streak.

The decimated Sixers, who remained without Cameroonian center Joel Embiid and three other regulars, found a way to limit Serbian center Nikola Jokic to three points in the second half of the game and regained the winning path.

Embiid missed his sixth game in a row after entering the NBA’s Covid-19 health and safety protocols. Embiid’s absence ended a showdown between the top two vote winners for last season’s NBA MVP.

Philadelphia, which also scored 17 points from Tobias Harris, also ran out of Matisse Thybulle (health and safety protocols) and Danny Green (left hamstring). And there has been no resolution with Simmons (personal reasons), who has requested to be traded.

All wrong in Denver

Frustration in the Nuggets game led to their coach Michael Malone being sent off in the third period when he faced the referees as he entered the field and had to be controlled by Jokic.. The Nuggets shot 36% from the field in their second straight loss after a five-game winning streak.

The All-Star center of the Nuggets although he achieved a double-double of 30 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists before also leaving the field at the end of the fourth period, could not avoid the surprise defeat of the Denver team, which was the second in a row. Last season’s MVP award winner was paired with veteran center Andre Drummond and Charles Bassey. AND Although Jokic dominated in the first half with 27 points, he received little help.

Forward Barton returned from a back injury to finish with 19 points, nine rebounds and eight assists as the second-best player for the Nuggets, who have a 9-6 winning record and lost Game 2 at home.

And how did Facu walk?
