Nuggets Preview - 1st Preview
Memphis 3 Keys To Victory
Shoot Well From 3
Its going to be near impossible for Denver to stop Ja so if they can shoot like they did in the regular season Memphis should win.
Score In The Paint
With Bol Bol out for the series they don't have any shot blockers. Even with him they were 20th in the league in blocking shots.
Expose F's on D
Porter and Gallo are horrible perimeter defense grading out in the D range. They are times they will have to share the court. With the perimeter centric offense look for a big series from Clark.
Denver 3 Keys To Victory
Contain Ja
Gary Harris will have to guard him and he is just average on defense. When you add in not having a shot blocker It's going to be very tough to keep Ja under 30 a game.
Jokic Must Dominate
He averaged 24 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assist in the regular season and will need to do that plus maybe a little more to win 4 of 7.
Rebound
Denver was 4th in rebounds and Memphis 29th that's one area where they need to win
