![]() Denver must force someone else to beat them other than Durant or Booker. They give Durant extra attention, Booker can continue to cook. ![]() The Nuggets will mix up their defenses, but if Booker remains hot, they’ll have to make firmer decisions. He’s averaging 37.2 points in the postseason and coming off a 47-point cooking of the Clippers in Game 5 closeout that tied a career playoff high. Warren or Terrence Ross may get a shot, too.īooker carryover: Next to Miami’s Jimmy Butler, Booker has been the best player in the playoffs so far. Landry Shamet and Cameron Payne come to mind first, but Damion Lee, T.J. Josh Okogie has become Phoenix’s sixth man in the postseason, but he’s not enough. Will that lead to Suns coach Monty Williams playing Durant and Booker less? If so, then Williams will need more from his bench. Playing in the Denver altitude is always an issue for visiting teams.
