Nuggets reveal blueprint ahead of Game 1 vs. Warriors: “Everybody’s gotta be in attack mode” by msinger
Asked on Friday what areas he felt the Nuggets could exploit against the Warriors’ elite defense, Gordon was coy, preferring to keep those clues in-house.
Nikola Jokic is the head of the snake, and everything will run through him. In transition, in post-ups, from the elbow or in pick-and-rolls, Jokic will be featured in every action coach Michael Malone can conjure. The question Malone and others have raised is who will be Jokic’s running man? “We have to attack them on offense, otherwise they get off easy,” Austin Rivers said this week. “We can’t just be defending on our heels the whole game. We have our own advantages. We have to go try to exploit those and be aggressive.”It’s easy to be consumed with the defensive challenges Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole can present.
