After ending the road trip with a wave of 3 consecutive wins, the Golden State Warriors returned to the home court and ushered in the challenge of the Nuggets, who cannot be underestimated.
On the Warriors side, wiggins, the core of the team, ushered in a comeback, trying to bring more help to Curry, leading the team to defend the home field, and winning four consecutive games.
On the other hand, on the side of the Nuggets, Jokic is in a brave state, and whether the Nuggets can take advantage of the victory to win 2 consecutive wins has undoubtedly become a major attraction of this game!
Finally, after four quarters of play, with a wave of 21-8 offensive frenzy, the nuggets, which were mainly anti-guests, comprehensively suppressed the Warriors in the first three quarters, and once achieved a maximum 24-point lead.
Although in the final quarter, Curry ushered in an outbreak, the inside and outside shot a single quarter to score 15 points, leading the Warriors to play a wave of counterattack frenzy, instantly erasing the double-digit score gap.
But at the critical moment, Barton stepped forward to score a key basket, and Jokic sent a hat on the defensive end, completely ending the suspense of the game.
The Nuggets, who finally withstood the pressure, also narrowly won the Warriors 89-86 on the road, which was worth the trip to win 2 consecutive wins at the same time, but also ended the winning streak of the opposing Warriors!
In this game, the Nuggets did not fail in their mission, and several Tiger players such as Jeff Green + Campazo + Hyland performed their duties and played an excellent team performance.
As the team's star, Jokic's play in this game played a crucial leading role!
In this game, although Jokic lost the crosshairs on 0-of-5 three-pointers from the outside, with his super personal ability, Jokic still cut a team-high 22 points, plus 18 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals and 1 block of the double-double performance.
While the number of steals hit a new high this season, Jokic's play on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends of this game has also once become a warrior team with insufficient lineup height, and it is difficult to solve the existence on the no. 5 position on the inside line!
Of course, the Nuggets were able to win this game, and the performance of Tigers will Barton was equally indispensable.
In this campaign, Barton felt hot, shooting four three-pointers from the outside and contributing 21 points+ 4 rebounds + 4 assists + 1 steal + 1 block all-round performance.
And in the first quarter, he single-handedly broke through the level and bombarded the 14-point heroic performance, which not only helped the Nuggets to open up the situation smoothly, but also completely disrupted the defensive rhythm and deployment of the Warriors, and made a great contribution for the Nuggets to win the game!
More importantly, after winning two consecutive wins over the Warriors in this game, the Nuggets' current team record has also come to 17 wins and 16 losses, ranking the Clippers and the Lakers to rise to no. 5 in the West.
Considering the lack of major generals on the team, it has to be said that the Nuggets can make progress under heavy pressure, and the strength and depth of their lineup are indeed evident!
On the warriors' side, although the team wiped out the gap of as many as 24 points in this game, it once saw the hope of turning the tables again.
But the team failed to withstand the pressure in the final quarter, and finally reversed the defeat, and the home game process was obviously a little difficult to accept!
Fortunately, for the Warriors, this battle, the team is not completely without highlights, after all, as the team's façade, Curry's play in this game is indeed remarkable!
Curry scored only 2 points in the first half, scoring 21 points in the second half, shooting 5 three-pointers, and bombarding a game-high 23 points, plus 4 rebounds and 4 assists.
After scoring five three-pointers in this game, Curry's career regular season three-point shooting total also officially exceeded 3,000, becoming the only player in the history of the league to have achieved this achievement, setting a great personal record!
Just back to the game, although Curry's performance on the offensive end is eye-catching, his personal appearance of as many as 6 mistakes in the whole game still allows the Warriors to bury a great opportunity for reversal.
Coupled with the absence of Jordan Pooler + Green at the same time, facing the Nuggets, who are all soldiers, Curry, who has worked hard for a whole game, seems to have no choice but to drink and hate!
