而金塊總教練Michael Malone表示,在與太陽的系列賽裡,重點是防守對手的快攻和三分球。Malone表示,球隊在進攻端需要打出節奏,多在快攻裡得分,得到輕鬆得分的機會。
Malone emphasized Denver’s transition defense, guarding the 3-point line and, obviously, their pick-and-roll coverages against PHX.

Offensively, play with pace, score in transition, find easy baskets against a top-6 defense.
