On March 8, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued to unfold, and the Warriors challenged the Nuggets away. In this game, the Warriors also made a large area adjustment, the three main players Curry, Thompson and Wiggins did not go to Denver with the team, and the starting lineup also ushered in a big change.
The Warriors were missing a major general in this game, and Kerr also made a big adjustment to the starting lineup, With Poole, Damien Lee, Moody, Anderson and Rooney. Poole finally has another chance to start, this time he will also get unlimited firing rights, without the Splash Brothers and Wiggins, he is the core of the team's attack.
But even so, Nuggets coach Malone is still reminding the team that the team watched the video of the Warriors' victory over the Spurs in the absence of manpower, as a reminder to the players that this game should not be taken lightly.
This game is actually a make-up game, after the Nuggets were plagued by the epidemic, which caused the game to be postponed. Coupled with this game, the Warriors have 3 games to play in the next 4 days, which also makes them make the decision to take a break. This time, Curry, Thompson and Wiggins did not travel with the team to Denver and stay in Golden State for training, because they will have to play back-to-back home against the Clippers tomorrow.
In addition to the absence of these three main players, the Warriors also have Green, Wiseman, Payton Jr., Iguodala and Porter all absent, a total of 8 players are absent, which also means that the Warriors only have 9 players to play in this game, including two two-way contract players.
But even so, there is still one person on the Warriors side who has maintained full attendance this season, and that is center Rooney. Judging from Kerr's attitude, this season should keep Rooney full attendance, after all, there is no truce in this game, and there will be no rest in the future.
