Awesome! This is why I'm so excited for this series. Been saying for a while, Bam is to defense what Jokic is to offense. Miami's defense is just as creative as Denver's offense. Denver should be favored but if i could get a best of 21 series for these two teams I'd be in bball heaven.
Great Content @Coach Mike!! Very impressive run by this Miami Heat team all the media narrative is about them being an 8th seed but this breakdown highlight why they had so much success in the postseason against the best teams in the Eastern Conference. Butler was terrific offensively the first two rounds by the team defense, and coaching schemes by Spolestra are Masterclass chess moves.
Thats why Im laughing when somebody said who will guard Jokic or can Bam cover Jokic. Lol Heat did ut collectively as team. They play team defense they communicate and help alot, they run and throw bodiws at you. Theres no easy baskets on the Heat you have to earn it.
Heat can win it if they keep shooting 3s (Nuggs can't defend 3 pt shooters) and do pick and roll at Jokic as a defender. It would drain his stamina. Nuggs do nothing but drop defense.
The nuggets defense is based around clogging the paint, and helping jokic from being a defensive liability, but they cant defend the 3 ball, MPJ is too skinny, if they put him on jimmy, jimmy is gonna easily bully him and get buckets per usual, i dont believe in the nuggets defense. Jokic usage% finna go through the roof
Defense has always been a weak point for me.. So, thank God I found your channel Coach Mike !!! Looking forward to read your book and watch all your vids.
Jimmy Buttler did not take easy shots that was available but he chose to dribble and do lot of passing. Very poor defense. Wake up Eric, fans saw the faults and how come you didn’t see that.

Miami’s offense wasn’t creative enough.
They even have Haywood Highsmith another underrated defender
Highsmith picking Tatum's pocket was a thing of beauty.
Yes

Great work, Coach Mike!!!
Thanks Jen, you’re the best!

Awesome Breakdown! I'm a casual fan & just took me into advanced basketball mechanics 101!
Learned a lot, thx Coach!
Damn Miami heats Defence gotta have the best team defence in this season
Back at it like a crack addict! Good to see some more Defensive Breakdowns
What a great breakdown!!!! Thanks
This was great, but I was really hoping for a breakdown of their zone. Any chance that can be a separate video?

They don’t get it. They really don’t

Glad I could help! Let me know if you have any questions. Keep working
This is art. It’s like the defensive version of the 14’ Spurs
great analogy 🔥
Great breakdown
Awesome breakdown!
Great video analysis man. Let's go Heat
Great video
what a breakdown. great work coach! i got miami in 6🔥
How’d that work for you? 🤷🏾♂️
Good stuff man
Hi coach. Can you make a video about Dimitris Diamantidis. He is 5 times Euroleague defender of the year.
Coach! What are the pros and cons of Forward stance and Upward Stance? Which is better?
Check out the lockdown Blog, the two most recent article dive into this: www.lockdowndefenseblog.com
@@LockdownDefense I emailed you about the same question but I gave more details about me there. Thanks for the answer though!
do you plan on making a video on defending faster players?
Plot Twist: This is actually Mike Malone
Can you make a Dennis Rodman Defensive Breakdown?
Mike malone in comments lurking
Wow amazing
Gotta mention how Celtics made them look even better by taking so many 3 pointers like they were all Steph and Klay
U forgot to talk about their zone defesuve
If Bam averages 2 or less turnovers and gets 15/10/5 Miami's bench may end up being a bigger problem than assumed. Go time!!
Did Bam and Miami fulfill your theory?
forgive me for being human, congrats to a superior 2023 Nuggets squad.

I hammered Murray under 25.5 pts
Murray will NOT have fun tonight!!
Fact: He did not have fun that night. He had fun after winning the series. 👌
@@DaleGribble0111 touché
Defense vs offense....game 1
Unfortunately the midrangers are always available & Jamal, OCP, MPJ, Jokic are all poachers from mid range
@reneluis1830is he putting money on it or just talking/wishing?
