Minnesota plays elite team defense


they will cook anyone that depends on motion or sets to get scores.



Denver needs to iso and drive and kick


their problem is they dont have the personnel to do this. MPJ has been run off the 3pt lines more times in 1.25 games than he has the entire last 2 playoff years combined. Denver is so used to playing ball their way they've never been tested having to run offense any other way.

Is it defense or Murray struggling out there? Aside from those clutch plays, he isn't looking great out there.

ok


Denver clearly worked on getting mpj and gordon into more actions.

but

they are so used to not ball handling or drive and kicking that they created a zillion turnovers and missed layups.

hats off to the Minnesota video team and their scouts


they have completely figured out the entire nuggets offense


every pnr, every Minnesota player is perfectly spaced to help and recover until the ball is picked up.

Jokic and Murray has a billion turnovers.



they know Denver as well as Denver knows themselves.
