RandyMossIsBoss Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Nuggets in 6 or 7. Too much firepower for Heat to keep up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The zone won't work nearly as well against the Nuggets but the Heat have the personnel to slow everyone down minus Jokic. But the Heat's offense is just not consistent enough, especially when Butler isn't going off. Nuggets in 6 is probably what it ends up being.

Jokic in the middle of the zone should feast. spacing to work for a shot, kick to the corners for 3's or lob for a dunk to Gordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11sanchez11 Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 heat have already beaten the bucks and celtics, the two title favorites coming into the playoffs, and ppl still aren't giving them a chance 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 I don't see this going longer than 5. Unlike Boston, Denver has a consistent offense. They can hang with good Miami. Bad Miami cannot hang with Denver. I thought Miami would beat the Knicks and had a good shot against Boston going into those series. I do not see it against Denver, especially with how beat up and tired they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartica4Real Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 On paper, this is an easy Denver win. But it was the same for Milwaukee and Boston. That said, I do think Denver matches up way better with the Heat than the Bucks or Celtics ever did, sure we obviously expected them to win due to difference in talent levels, but pure matchup wise it was fine for the Heat, they've always been good at taking advantage of the Bucks defensive scheme and always play Boston close. No one on Miami is stopping Jokic though and Denver has the defenders to throw at Butler and Caleb "Steph Curry" Martin. I'll still say Nuggets in 5 but I'm not gonna be surprised if the Heat spit in the face of logic again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11sanchez11 Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 can't figure out if AG is a good defender for Jimmy or not. he might be a little too swole now, he is a massive human being. on the other hand theoretical AG is a perfect defensive player for Jimmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamq Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Heat in 6, Jimmy will drop 40 in a game, maybe 2. Bam finally shows up for more than a couple games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
