Word of the day ::: adjustments
Will Coach Malone make any significant adjustments?
Will the Nuggets' players make any significant adjustments?
Offensive adjustments?
Defensive adjustments?
We all have our ideas, but our ideas aren't going to win the game.

This Denver team better playing in the playoff under pressure!
In games when the opponent leads the series and in the 7th game decider Nuggets record since 2019 is 11-6 while just 5-12 in a "normal" games were no extra pressure.

Heard Murray was on the court before the game making 3pt after 3pt w/o jumping on that injured leg, This would be a different series already had that ACL injury never happened.

Have always like Lillard's game and loyalty to his team but man, he bitches after every shot attempt, bit of a DIVA.

A solid first quarter on defense. The Nuggets defended the PNR a lot better. But again, there's too many missed 3s. JaMychal Green missed a wide open 3. This game will come down to the Nuggets being able to keep up with the Blazers 3pt shooting.
Players like Green and Campazzo are going to be left open pretty much all game, and they'll need to start hitting their shots.

There's not much you can do against that. But it might be a good idea to start getting the ball out of his hands with double teams.

Whoever said Ag couldn't guard is just wrong ! Maybe not the whole game but he definitely give Dame a different look

This could be a series changing adjustment. Of course, if PJ was still healthy he'd be the one guarding Dame. But I like this matchup as well.

What a rough 3rd quarter. So many fouls and FTs.

That was a really bad way to close the 3rd quarter. But again, JaMychal Green MUST be able to hit wide open 3s.

Always heard JaMychel was a decent shooter, can't say I believe that seeing him in this game.

Actually wished Melo got his 6th foul, would have been fun to see him AND Nurkic foul out in Denver
