Pregame – Toronto’s plan of attack is to slow the pace of the game down and pressure the guards especially All SGL PG Deron Williams, to force up mid range jumpers and give up less 3point baskets then this Nuggets team is used to. They are hit or miss when shooting and that will be the first thing that effects the match up, the 3point shooting of each team. Will 6th man of the year, Paul Pierce, shoot consistently and will the red hot Carmelo Anthony continue his dominate scoring. The Raptors plan to go to Dwight Howard early and often, and give him shorter more frequent rests with the addition of Elton Brand. Expect Nuggets to come out Firing when there favorite corners as well as looking for Penetration from Gay (indeed). Nuggets will continue with there A team, B team setup with Their number 1 pick waiting on the second team.
Key Players of the Series:
Denver: Deron Williams, Yao, Rudy Gay, Billups
Toronto: Dwight Howard, Melo, Pierce
X-Factors:
Denver: Ray Allen, Rasheed Wallace
