Miami Heat vs. Denver Nuggets Game Day Preview
The Miami Heat find themselves in uncharted waters after losing game 1 of the 2023 NBA finals. As for the Denver Nuggets, the team has yet to loose a 2023 playoff game on home court. Can they be getting a little too overconfident? Our Heat aim to draw blood in Game 2 tonight!
Miami Heat
The Miami Heat have lost four of its last five games. They face a playoff deficit for the first time in 2023. The teams shooting performance was brutal in game one. However, coach Eric Spoelstra is not discouraged. Despite just hitting 41% of their game one field goals and shooting 33% from three-point land his message to the team has been “Let it fly”.
Well it just so happens that this 2023 Miami Heat team is getting big-time contributions from all of their undrafted players.

So here's a more in-depth look at this stuff. https://t.co/WmvAy6nO5A
Denver Nuggets
Coach Michael Malone is well aware of how Miami has performed on the road during this playoff season. “I reminded our group, if they didn’t know, that Miami went into Milwaukee (in the first round) and won Game 1. They went into the Garden in New York City (in the second round) and won Game 1. They won Game 1 up in Boston (in the Eastern Conference finals). So, we did not want them coming in here taking control of the series on our court.” The theme of defending the Denver Nuggets home court is evident.
