Summary

In segment one of this episode I look at the ways the Denver Nuggets can improve in game two. What adjustments can they make? And in what ways might they have been unlucky that they probably won't be in game two?  In segment two, I look at some of the areas that they had success in game one but probably won't find success in game two. In segment three, I do the same exact thing for the Portland Trail Blazers. Should we expect Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum to shoot better from behind the arc? Will they make a change to who guards Nikola Jokic? Music: Tired Eyes, Ernest Ranglin Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:30.1

Maybe some adjustments I think they'll make. In segment two, I'm going to talk about areas of

0:34.3

regression. Where did Denver maybe overperform in game one?

0:37.6

Where did the ball bounce their way where it might not in game two?

0:40.7

And then over the final segment, I'm going to talk about areas of improvement and regression

0:44.8

for Portland.

0:45.7

So I'll kind of pack both of those segments into just the final one there to talk about those.

0:49.6

And I think it'll provide a nice way of both looking backwards at game one and kind of now that I've

1:03.4

as well as kind of refining some of the ones from yesterday show. And then it also allows us a chance

1:08.2

to look forward and kind of anticipate because I think, you know, after a second watch, I really think Denver is a lot better in the series and that the matchup favors them.

1:18.3

One way to put it, I think that there are things Denver can do to defend Portland.
