Denver Game Plan
1. DRIVE AND KICK: Poor help defense (13.7 vs 14.4 lg avg). Penetrate and collapse the defense for open kickouts.
2. ISO OPPORTUNITIES: Weak perimeter defense (10.6 vs 12.8 lg avg). Let wing creators attack 1-on-1.
3. KEY ASSIGNMENT: Contain Zaire Phifer (19.4 PPG, 24.8% USG). Assign best perimeter defender, deny touches.
