Denver Game Plan

1. ISO OPPORTUNITIES: Weak perimeter defense (11.9 vs 13.0 lg avg). Let wing creators attack 1-on-1.
2. DEFEND THE ARC: Strong 3PT team (15.3 vs 14.6 lg avg). Close out hard on shooters, contest every three.
3. CROWD THE LANE: Poor spacing (10.4 vs 11.4 lg avg). Play aggressive help defense — their shooters won't punish you.
4. KEY ASSIGNMENT: Contain Derrick Lynch (32.3 PPG, 34.6% USG). Assign best perimeter defender, deny touches.
