The Nuggets were undefeated at home during the NBAPlayoffs until tonight. Denver's last home loss heading into Game 2 was on March 30th.
Love, who has several inches on Martin, gave the Heat a much better chance against the Nuggets’ gifted bigs, including Gordon. Love, playing in his fourth NBA Finals and first since 2018 in Cleveland, added six points and a team-high 10 rebounds.shook off his 0-for-10 performance from Game 1 to score 14 for Miami, with four 3s in the first quarter.
Adebayo has been the Heat’s best player through two games. He scored 26 points on 25 shots in Game 1, and in Game 2, added nine rebounds, four assists and two blocks. “Bam, we just can’t say enough of how difficult his responsibilities are in this series,” Spoelstra said. “To take arguably the toughest cover in the league for all the myriad of reasons that I don’t need to get into, and then he has to shoulder a big offensive role for us, as well. So it’s not like he can just stand and rest on the offensive side, and yes, he has to play 40-plus minutes, as well.
Butler was 7-of-19 from the field and is 13-of-33 shooting through two games. He led the Heat with nine assists and has played the role of facilitator. His missed 3 with 14.6 seconds to go gave the Nuggets one last chance to tie, and it was Butler who put a hand in Murray’s face as he let it fly.“I think you guys have seen me hit that shot enough,” Murray said. “It was a good look, just didn’t go down.”“I think he got off a decently good look,” Butler said.
