The Horrific Mistakes That Will Cost Denver...
Support by buying my NBA T-Shirts: https://heatcheck.info/
This is the moment where Denver lost control of the game. On the screen and the curl here, this is a simple defensive decision. You either switch it, or Bruce Brown should just show here, allowing Christian Braun to recover.
But this is an inexcusable mistake to have them both here with Robinson and leave Vincent completely wide open and he punishes them.
Thing is, it happened again the very next possession.
Same exact play, and once again the 2 defenders don’t communicate this time allowing Duncan to go all the way to the basket and extend the lead.
Denver had a bunch of these mental lapses that cost them the game. Let me show you.
Even at the start of the game the Nuggets seemed confused and made silly mistakes.
Follow Struss here as he goes to set the screen but actually slips and goes to the corner. This was not the quickest slip but still KCP and Porter kept standing up top, leaving Max alone in the corner and he punishes them.
Again, with Gordon on Butler, Struss comes over and slips again. And look at how slow Murray is to say that this is a switch. By thes time he signals this, Max is already right here. So Jimmy finds him, he’s got enough time to fire away and knock it down.
Struss even got a third open look off a mistake by the defense.
Gordon has been successful in guarding Butler 1 on 1, so why is KCP leaving a dangerous shooter to try to help over there when there’s no need for it.
Jimmy again makes the right play, Struss fires away and this is another punishment for Denver’s mistakes.
KCP had some more mental lapses throughout the game as he reaches in on a fling shot from way out as the shot clock expired and got Struss 3 free throws.
And he did it yet again in the clutch, costing his team a lot as Lowry converted all three free throws and the lead ballooned to 8 points.
And we gotta talk about Michael Porter Jr who after a bad shooting night in game 1, was a complete no show in the second game going 2 for 8 for 5 points.
He hasn’t done anything besides shooting contested three pointers. And if they don’t go in there’s no alternative. He doesn’t attack the rim, there’s no movement without the ball, no cutting, nothing.
MPJ is getting 33 million per year and I expect him to start playing like he deserves that especially now when it matters the most.
Jamal Murray also got burned a few times on defense. Right here he bites on this pump fake that’s almost from the logo and allows for an open look and the three.
Then Robinson just blows by him as if he’s one of the best drivers in the league.
Shoutout to Duncan for the increased confidence balling out at the end of the season but Murray needs to be better in this situation.
Miami did play some good defense and credit to them for getting back in the game after that huge Denver run in the second quarter but this is solely the Nuggets fault.
They are clearly the better team but got outplayed and lost because of bad defensive mistakes that cannot happen in the finals.
The Heat got the split and are headed back home and we still haven’t seen a typical Jimmy Butler game and you know that’s coming as well. Things just got very spicy and we’re in for a great finals series. Talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
