Denver Game Plan
1. ISO OPPORTUNITIES: Weak perimeter defense (12.4 vs 12.8 lg avg). Let wing creators attack 1-on-1.
2. DEFEND THE ARC: Strong 3PT team (15.7 vs 14.5 lg avg). Close out hard on shooters, contest every three.
3. KEY ASSIGNMENT: Contain Talis Kalemba (18.8 PPG, 23.8% USG). Assign best perimeter defender, deny touches.
