Denver Game Plan
1. PACK THE PAINT: Weak 3PT shooting (13.9 vs 14.6 lg avg). Sag off non-shooters and clog driving lanes.
2. CROWD THE LANE: Poor spacing (10.6 vs 11.4 lg avg). Play aggressive help defense — their shooters won't punish you.
3. KEY ASSIGNMENT: Contain Cedric Rodgers (30.0 PPG, 36.5% USG). Assign best perimeter defender, deny touches.
