Michael Porter Jr. opened up and was very self-critical about his playoff games with the Denver Nuggets.
The Denver Nuggets basketball players were defeated in the seventh game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The final score of the game last night was 125:93.
Someone from whom a lot was expected in the Nuggets jersey is Michael Porter Junior. However, the wing basketball player disappointed absolutely everyone.
Now he opened up and talked about why he played one of the worst playoff series of his career.
First of all, he looked back at last night's meeting itself, and talked about the events in it.
"It was tough to start like that, leading by double digits, and then watching some fouls that weren't called.
They were getting points on counterattacks, the crowd was going crazy. We were losing the ball too much, you can't do that here, and that's why it's a tough loss," Porter began, answering a question about his performance:
"Honestly, there are a lot of things that are tough. For me, I wanted to win, to help the team, everyone did their part in this playoff.
We played good basketball, and I didn't give the team what I could, that's why it's tough. I've been going through these shoulder problems.
I've been trying to find balance, but it's tough. The shoulder affects how you sleep. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't lift anything heavy.
I felt like a wimp. It was frustrating. At the end of the day, I didn't play this series, this playoff, I need to get my body back to optimal condition."
Porter Jr.: They have a team that is a champion, we lacked a bit
At the very end, Porter Jr. said that the Oklahoma team has a championship team.
"We took them to the seventh match after the fact that we didn't rest after the last series, which also went to seven games.
They have a team that is a champion, we lacked a bit. We could have not made it to the seventh game. They had all the pieces, so it all depends on the organization and what they think about it," Porter Jr. concluded.
