Denver has gone ice cold. They need to get back to taking the ball into the paint

That's on Jokic.
He's passing everything as OKC came back.

Because he's being doubled... that's why his teammates are getting wide open looks. He's making the right play every time. He's just surrounded by G-Leaugers.

Dort and Caruso are the heart of OKC. Remove them and you have a middling team.

Yeah OKC really doesn’t deserve to be in this spot, they have not played as well as Denver has.
Need to step up down the stretch on both ends.

I mean they paid him 29m a year, should they not rely on him?
Not like they have been. Big men get paid. He should be an outlet when needed but the ball is in his hands too much imo.
They have used him as a hub all year long, look at the assist numbers.

Adelman probably isn’t cut out for this. He doesn’t challenge ANYTHING all game, but won’t call a timeout when Denver is discombobulated and gassed while OKC is on a run and they have FOUR timeouts with 6 mins left in the game.
Swinging for the fences.

I'm seeing it differently.
These last few possessions, he's not attacking.
He's passing too quickly.

Denver will look back on these last 5 minutes as the ones that cost them the game, their series and season.

I think his point is to stop making the "right play". It isn't working. Get busy.Castle Black wrote:Handlez wrote:Castle Black wrote:Joker's supporting cast is such a joke. Surrounded by so many scrubs. It's unreal.

Adelman should've taken that TO three posessions ago. The 5 on the court clearly not vibing and JOK/Murray need a rest as they're passing instead of creating. 4 TOs why hesitate, already lost the momenetum

put non shooters and mid defenders when you have the best playmaker in the NBA genius booth.

No excuses.
He has to close this.
