It was a disastrous start for Denver, who had four turnovers in the first two and a half minutes of this game.
Ten in the first quarter after just eight in all of game four.
And you were wondering if maybe this was going to be a game two type performance from them
in terms of the focus that Michael Malone has talked about.
Denver came out a little tight offensively.
They were turning the ball over, but give them credit,
they didn't let their bad offense make them fall asleep defensively.
There are some teams that when they're not doing it defensively,
they have that woe is me attitude.
They put their head down and they start giving up shots.
Even when the shots weren't falling, even when they were turning it over,
you would see a great hustle back by guys like Contavious Caldwell-Polk
to get in on those plays on some of those turnovers.
So they weren't playing at a high efficiency level early on,
but the hustle was there.
