Nuggets Prepare For Showdown With Suns: Series Preview
The Nuggets get their chance at revenge (even if they don't think of it that way) from the sweep two years ago as they take on the Suns, this time with Jamal Murray and the Suns with Kevin Durant. We break down who this is and is not a series for, what the keys for, the idea of easy buckets in a tough-bucket series, pick and roll coverages, who guards MPJ and Book, who's more important, what CP3 can do, how important this is for Murray and Joker, who has the coaching advantage and more. It's Nuggets vs. Suns in the Western Semifinals, and we break it all down on Locked on Nuggets.
