Jokic needs to look for his own shot instead of trying to play pass first. Unselfish to a fault. Just like Luka when he passes up wide open floaters/layups for a late kick out.
- No one can defend Edwards. Too big for KCP. Too quick for Gordon. Denver needs to try something else (zone, box-and-one).
- In contrast to almost all guards from the early 10s Conley is still playing at a high level. Reminds me a little bit of J.Kidd in 2011. Just managing the game. Playing smart defense. Not really looking for his own shot but if he is needed he can hit a big three.
Conley's resurrection is the most surprising thing about this Minnesota team to me. He looked totally done 2 years ago.
