Denver Nuggets have arguably been the best team in this playoffs, but the 8th seeded Miami Heat aren't just going to concede defeat either, The Nuggets will be facing their toughest opponent of the series so far, and it will be an entirely the different ball game compared to what the Nuggets faced against Lakers, they sure aren't going have it any easy this time around.
They aren't going to have it easy but this is a bad matchup for the Heat. Murray/jokic pick amd roll game is going to destroy the heat. Jokic can spread the heat bigs by playing outside. No way can zeller be matched up against jokic so it's gonna take bam all he has but jokic should be 30+ points 15+ rebounds and 10 plus assists average for the series. Dude is gonna rake.
Yeah, I understand how terrifying Jokic and Jamal Murray pick and roll can be when at it's optimal level, Denver Nugget swept the Miami Heat in the regular season by the way, but this is the playoffs and it's easier said than done, because the Heat defense could be very suffocating for the Nuggets and them become the ones forced to take tough shots. Miami Heat path to the finals have been the toughest of the two sides imo, defeating the Milwaukee Bucks and Boston Celtics in the playoffs enroute to the finals indeed isn't just a fluke.
