Incorrect. They started with Love allowing Butler to guard Murray. They blitzed Murray all night.

I think they also started Love to make sure Aaron Gordon wasn't getting huge mismatches inside on switches with Vincent and Butler etc like he did in game 1. It also gave them another big body to deal with Jokic early. Again, another great adjustment by Coach Spo

Now over to Malone to see how they adjust. I personally think they need to hunt Duncan and Lowry more when they’re on the floor

So I've tried watching this like I said I would but i can't get into it :/

For me, it’s about how competitive it is. Most games go down to the last minute. The only other sport I can think of that’s as competitive is Moto GP and I love that too.

Maybe but I don't think it's for me.

Go away. This is a big boy sport, not young little tight pussy boys sport like supporting Liverpool is

Chris Paul waived from Suns. Things you absolutely love to see

Now that he won't be on a horrible deal, he'd be a good pick up for a contender if he agreed to be a backup PG or play limited minutes as a starter. But whether he agrees to that or not is a different matter.

2 x 30pt triple doubles?? Murray and Jokic.
Denver shows their class in this one.

 

[dekepefc]

When nuggs are on they're a much better team.. even for periods of game 2 they completely dominated but had a few calls go against them and had lapses in effort and application.. i wouldn't say the series is there for heat to win, more denvers to lose... hoping to wrap it up at home in game 5

 

[ChesoBulldog]

You can’t just let Jokic score this easily, at some point you are going to need address that.
Malone made a great adjustment in giving Braun and Brown some of MPJs minutes. Playing big meant Miami couldn’t blitz Murray, hence why he went off.
Now over to Miami for what adjustments they’ll make.
I am enjoying this series from a x’s and o’s perspective. Really fun to watch.

 

[Freakzilla]

Duncan Robinson should be playing more minutes.

 

[ChesoBulldog]

Duncan Robinson should be playing more minutes.

In the 4th you Probably saw why you can’t play him heavy mins in this series. He can’t defend. Made brown look like the second coming of Lou Williams

Fuck the Heat

Jamal Murray is better than Jaylen Brown.

Understatement of the year wtf

 

[alchemist]

After years of hastily assembled, short sighted, artificial super teams, watching Denver and Miami in the finals has been fun

 

[Freakzilla]

Teams missing open shots galore in this game.
