AD and LBJ should post them up early to put them into foul trouble. I think starting Howard might do well to put pressure on Jokic early and remove his energy. Shooters must step up so that the nugget's defence will not focus on the paint.

our defense need to wake up a lot earlier than the 4th Q
Everybody need to crash the board, can't have AD with 0 reb for more than 3Q
Just play harder than the Nuggs, we are simply better

I think we posted up Dwight like once and it was an and-1. Seriously utilize Dwight in the post especially when he gets great position.

Big giggle at the idea that AD will bully anyone. That isn’t his game.

Nope.

BUT he is beasty when he is aggressive so hopefully his ankle is OK and he isn't tentative and he goes in there and dominates.

Those 12 points and 11 rebounds--including six offensive--in 23 minutes by DH in Game 4 were huge.

We have to be the aggressors right off the gate, our ability to play physical will likely be limited by the refs this game so we'll have to make up for it with hustle and heart.
