Destino Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Miami is experiencing what so many other teams have… doubling Jokic early is a bad idea. They’ve gotten great shots everywhere because he always finds the undefended player. 10 and 10 double double in the first half without missing a shot or turning the ball over. you have to send a double late or not at all and force him to shoot.

I think you attack him when he dribbles the ball up the court and attack on defense. I think you can send a double early but be disciplined and have the defense rotate over. Throw him multiple looks. this nugget team is pretty good tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Miami’s best bet is let Bam make him catch it away from the rim. Something he’s been doing pretty well. Send no help, make him fight his way around Bam from the foul line. Send help when he catches it in scoring position after he hunches down to make his move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momma There Goes That Man Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 (edited) I wouldn’t double at all. Let him score as many as he wants but don’t give up the 10+ assists, many on 3s. Stay home on everyone else At the very least, they’ll have to beat you making tough shots rather than Jokic getting everybody open looks Edited June 2, 2023 by Momma There Goes That Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Nuggets offense seems unbothered by whatever the heat are trying tonight. They’ve gotten great looks and mismatches all game long. Not a lot of contested buckets in this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destino Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Game 1 over reactions will be plentiful, but the Heat team we saw today won’t be the team we see in game 2. They shot horribly. I’m not so worried about Miami’s offense, they won’t miss open shots all series. The question is can they slow the nuggets offense, because no one’s had much success doing it.

How often will the Nuggets shoot under 30 percent from three? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renegade7 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 2 free throw attempts as a team ain't gonna cut it...run into that paint even if they bigger then you or you're definitely going to lose... Still 11 point game, didn't feel like it, saw Nuggets up around a 20 a lot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COWBOY-KILLA- Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 There is some stuff to build upon for the Heat for the rest of the series imo. The odds are against us for sure. There size and offensive execution is a problem... We'll need to execute a whole lot better, that is a given. Jimmy, Caleb, and Max need to not be invisible. Two free throws is absurd and won't cut it. Bam for all stuff he takes from people was really really good tonight. But I'd bet Spo is a little encouraged by a few things...We'll see what game two looks like. Not totally discouraged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t see the heat being fouled on shot attempts. They didn’t really force a lot at the rim, they mostly took open shots and missed them. Shaq just told a Joker “I don’t normally give big guys a lot of props, but I’m giving props to you.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were a few non calls during the game that had me yelling at the TV. On Bam, Vincent and others. But I'm not a blame the refs kinda guy at all. We did miss a ton too. 2 free throws is a joke though. Jokic had 1 foul in the 4th qtr. really guy that big and involved, 1 foul?. But again refs were not the issue for me.

Spaceman Spiff Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Is Jokic the best 2nd round draft pick ever? I know the NBA had more rounds back in the day. But for arguments sake, I can’t think of anyone better taken in the 2nd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
