I see this as a 5 game max series.  I just don't see miami scoring with Denver unless theor 3 point shooting is off the charts.  Jokic can't be stopped and Murray is just too good to be slowed down as well.  If miami wants a chance they will have to figure out how to defend their pick and roll game.

Therefore, Miami Heat should really be focused on their offense more while obviously, still trying to slow down the Nuggets offensive phase. If Denver Nuggets are unstoppable on their offense, where even teams they faced in the playoffs put some hard defense on them, then keep up with them thru the offensive phase too.

Putting too much attention on their disadvantage might just destroy their overall strategy. Instead, focused on where they are good too, the offense. We have shown Miami Heat games where they are putting a good percentage on their offense and that's where they should improve, as much as possible.

Anyways, let's wait for the Game 1 result, and from there we can see what the possible adjustments are projected to happen to later games.

It's Aaron Gordon btw, and he's really punishing below with those smaller defenders on him. The switches Denver are absolutely stunning and I guess this will be a blowout game for the Denver unless Miami make some adjustments and decrease that outside shooting, they're really salty out there especially for Strus right now with 0-6 3PT FG.

I did a quick Google search on who Ben Gordon is, and surprisingly he played in the NBA (I don't know him TBH that's why I'm surprised), and what's more surprising is that base on Wikipedia:

Anyway, the Nuggets won on their first NBA Finals game on franchise history by 11 points 104-93 behind a triple double by Jokic (his 9th in this playoffs), and 26 points by Murray.

The Nuggets are just amazing in this game. Shot 50.6% in FG, and the Heat doesn't have anything to stop Murray, and MPJ who got a double-double 14 points, 13 rebounds. Gordon also scored 16 points in this one. What's good about the Nuggets is that, they know how to capitalize the disadvantages of their opposing team like in this game, the Heat obviously are undersized especially when Gordon, and MPJ are in the court (which happens most of the time). That's also the reason why both of them got double-digits in this Game 1. Jokic also got 14 assists which is the most in an NBA Finals debut.

As for the Heat, they made a history in Game 1 as they have the fewest number of free throw attempts in NBA Finals history with two attempts. Just imagine that for a second. You played for 48 minutes, and you only got 2 free throws. Butler just for context averaged more than 8 free throw attempts in the ECF, and has been good in drawing fouls. This just shows how good the Nuggets are in defense to the point that they can avoid getting fouls while defending their opponents. This is also the first Game 1 loss for the Heat since they won on the first 3 Game 1's on the first 3 series in this playoffs. Another one is Caleb Martin. He is unstoppable against the Celtics, but in Game 1 he scored only 3 points. It's expected that the Nuggets will defend him most of the time.

Game 2 will be 2 days from now. We will see more adjustments coming from both teams. Will the Nuggets maintain their undefeated record? Or the Heat will bounce back, and steal one on the road like what they're always doing in this playoffs.

Man, I’m getting all my names wrong. Not sure why I got Ben in there, although I do remember him from back in the day too.   Aaron Gordon is actually one of my favorite players and has the greatest dunk of all time under his belt, so I should definitely not be making that mistake. He was the difference tonight. The question now to me is if this series is a sweep or not.

The game controlled in defense for Denver, controlled in attack, the coach gave him time to take a break, he woke up when he called timeout.  

 Jokic triple double, but in his words the key to Denver's dominance is having 4 of his teammates with double points.

 No surprises, @1.30 turned out to be quite high Now Sunday's game I don't think it will be as easy as this for Denver, Heat will adjust their game and 2 days of rest will allow them to perform better.

Well, the expected "blowout" I would say.

I said they will win by 15 or more and it looked that way after 3 quarter.
Left the off the gas paddle and lost the last quarter by 10 to win "only" be 11.

Still a good demonstration of what's to come in this series.

Jokic with a mandatory triple double on great shooting splits, this guy is just ridiculous. Without Butler having a good game and Robinson hitting some 3s Miami will be in BIG trouble!

Lucky are those who took the -10.5. You just received the exact amount to win your bets so congratulations to you all.
In my case, I took the -8.5 Nuggets, so it's also a winner.

The Miami Heat is not playing well when it comes to offense, Caleb Martin seems to be off night and that broke his consistent double digits in points in the Celtics series. Maybe in Game 2, he will be different. Gabe Vincent and Haywood Highsmith are the only ones who I think are confident enough to do some damage against the Nuggets. Bam's stats, should be normal, that's his average during the season. Something big is missing, Jimmy Butler. He is the one who creates a lot of free throws for the team but today they only shot 2/2 at the stripe. That means no one is putting a body against the Nuggets when it comes to offense and that should be Butler.
They are not aggressive enough and the Nuggets took advantage of that. The Heat are actually lucky the three-pointers of the Nuggets are not sinking in or else it could've been a big blowout.

This is how they should perform if they really want this as their first Championship.
Luckily I was able to place a bet with them since I'm really confident that they can beat Heat.
Heat should not expect for a luck this time as they are facing a tough team, and if they also want a win here they should start working out for this and do some extra effort in the court. Game 1 was clearly dominated by Denver as expected, they are the favorite team to win here.
