Playoff intensity + altitude is really starting to get to Minnesota.

Bad rotations. Naz and Anderson killed them.

my eyes tell me the best way to beat Denver is to not double Jokic

and play anything but drop coverage in their pnrs.

I see at least 5 embiid fouls on Jokic every time he has the ball

Just read Darius Morris (u of Mich; Nets, Lakers, etc.) died at 33. Way too young.

I legitimately think'


the correct way to beat Denver is to let Jamal Murray take 30 shots.



if u let him draw help and he gets to pass to Jokic, you lose the game to 5-10 baseline cuts or weak side corner 3s by gordon and KCP. thats the error that LAL made for 2 straight years. when u play deep drop the pass to Jokic on the Murray-jokic pnr is too easy. your big has to be up on the screen to deny the pass or atleast keep Jokic getting the as far away from the paint as possible.


I dont even think you should hedge the screens


just fight over, stay home on Jokic so that he never walks into the middle and gets to make that pass to cutting gordon

they've played Jokic exclusively 1on1


Minnesota even with bad game from naz Reid is unquestionably the deeper team

Denver is almost always the bigger team



Minnesota is the one team where they say no you're not.
