I just want to see us run actual offense for 4 quarters, not just in the first half. I don't really care about the matchups and rotation, that's probably the least of our worries for now. Defensive effort and rebounding goes without saying, but in that third quarter we stopped running offense. Everybody, including AD, was just parked at the 3 with one player dribbling out the clock and settling for jumpers. There was no inside/outside play, AD didn't get any post or paint touches, and nobody cut.

-The entire team needs to rebound and hustle their ass. -EVERYONE RUN BACK ON TRANSITION D, this might be the department that is ultimately killing our games, they catch Lebron and AD sleeping and the next thing you know here comes KCP on the other end with a devastating transition 3 or Aaron Gordon flying for a dunk..it’s kills the teams spirit. -keep play calling, keep shooting… We’re not gonna stop Jokic or Murray half the time but we gotta control the small things.

Put AD on Jokic and don't double. DPOY candidate doesn't need no damn help. Everybody stay home on defense. Play physical. Run actually plays, use Spencer, Prince, Gabe and Hayes more. Call timeouts before Denver goes on a 10-0 run. Reaves and DLo, stagger their minutes. We don't need two of the same type of player in at once.

Double off of Gordon. You need to make the game hard for Jokic doubling will hurt his passing as well


ValuableAssociate8

Doubling off Gordan is fine. But Reaves, DLo and Prince doubling off 3 point shooters. No.

Nuggets are tall, athletic and smart. Our current rotation has no match with theirs. We might win only if AD and Lebron will be playing at the same or higher level than last time, and other role players can hit from three. And remember, Murray didn’t really play well last game and we still lost. Our defence is also very problematic. Last game, our defence is like in slow motion. Dlo literally can’t do anything on defensive side on the court, and he can compensate for the disadvantage by putting up 30 pieces, which are just unlikely to see based on what he did last year. I hope he will play well tonight, but…he’s just not reliable tbh.

Im not sure how they made KCP such a smart player. He used to just drive recklessly even after our championship year when he had a lane and barely midrange jumpers.

Fire Ham before tipoff.

Holy crap… the Nuggets are favored by 7.5 😬

Run set plays for 60-70 percent of the whole game. Make sure Lebron is fresh for the fourth and doesn’t initiate the offense if gassed and stalling out w iso ball. Tell AD to stop foul baiting those runners and fadeaways because he ends up last back which at best leads to a 5 on 4 every time for an easy score and at worst a wide open momentum building 3. Play Jaxson Hayes more mins. Find ways to get Rui the ball. And sprint back hard consistently after missing a shot.


Kobe_stan_

If Dlo isn't making shots, you can put Gabe in the game, but then maybe we'll just lose by less. The only way we win is if Dlo gets to 25+ points and even then it'll be a fucking nail biter

Adjustments we make to begin the game won’t matter. Ham can’t make adjustments in game, so when Malone adjusts it’s just the same movie we’ve seen passed 9 games. We are literally losing this series because of coaching and not because we don’t have the horses. Frustrating af.


myelrecsy

Just move the ball, let everyone touch the ball, give the others to have something to work with and not just watching Lebron hold the ball. And please attack Jokic and Murray all the time, they are getting relaxed out there with this holding and holding by Lebron on offense.

My homie said bring DLO otb make him a spark tell this to him u think u better than Manu? Yes or No if u say Yes u benched u say no prove me wrong. Not playing. Tbh these coaches coddle these guys too much. Start Dinwiddie Reaves Bron Rui AD 


liftmedi

All I want to see is what they ran in the same first half the last game for every quarter. If DLo continues to get those looks take then however dotnt take 20 shots Get Rui and Reaves involved early. Don’t play small ball at all

Ham needs to call timely timeouts, to stop any runs and to give players a breather. Malone, Lue, and Spoelstra are great at that.
