Warriors take the Nuggets lightly! Jokic was expelled, Curry exploded: the bench exploded with 34 points, plus-minus first
On April 19, Beijing time, the NBA once again ushered in a set of peak showdowns today, and Curry led the Warriors to continue to sit at home to meet the Nuggets challenge of Teacher Yo. The Nuggets, who lost their last game, were full of energy and vowed to make a comeback, because once they fell behind 0:2, it was likely that the season would end.
After the beginning of the first quarter, both teams were still offensively smooth, although they could not immediately set off wave after wave, but from the first showdown after the opening, it can be seen that they are high-quality defense and offense.
The Nuggets side naturally need not say much, about the teacher to sit and take the ball is a reasonable, and the Warriors side can not start today because of Curry's own reasons, but the other players play very energetic, Poole, Thompson are playing very well. After the first quarter, the Nuggets led by one point 26:25 into the second quarter.
After the start of the second quarter, the Warriors obviously entered the state faster, a wave of offense immediately pulled the point difference quickly, Curry this quarter of the game is also a frequent highlight performance, outside the three-point line and in the middle distance today's performance is excellent, although not much shot, but as long as Curry on the court he is always a threat.
This year's game belongs to the Warriors, their defensive counterattack to beat the Nuggets a bit of a blindfold, although the teacher is still excellent, but the other players can not give him enough firepower support, whether it is Gordon or Green are crazy iron, the Warriors with a good performance 32:25 directly turned the lead 6 points into the second half. In this half, the Warriors played very well as the whole team, especially Pooler, who performed well in the regular season, and the starter of this game lived up to expectations, scoring 14 points on 6 of 9 and also scoring 4 boards and 6 assists.
Curry is more willing to sit on the bench longer when he sees his little brother playing so well. After the opening of the second half, the Nuggets still can not find the accuracy of the offense, this year's Warriors home basket seems to have no fate with them, the entire third quarter they are still crazy to play iron, and the opponent Warriors will obviously not let go of such a good opportunity, in the face of Curry, Thompson, Poole and other offensive cannons, the Nuggets are simply overwhelmed, to know that today even goji brothers are incarnated sharpshooters, there are achievements outside the three-point line. In the face of such a warrior, no matter how strong and hard the teacher is, the helpless players collectively play iron, and the backward score difference of the Nuggets in this section continues to be further expanded. At 44:30 in the single quarter, the point difference was widened to the time of entering the garbage.
In the fourth quarter, facing the brave Warriors in a state, the Nuggets will no longer have the strength to resist, and it has to be said that the Warriors who have entered the playoff mode are indeed like changing a team, everyone is back, in addition to the familiar splash brothers, there is one more Pooler, although there is no exaggeration like the previous tsunami three brothers, but there is no problem at all in the face of the Nuggets' inaccuracies. And Teacher Yo is also depressed today, to talk about playing he really can't be better, three quarters have not been finished is already 26 + 10, such a teacher is not good enough?
At this time, the Nuggets will really miss Murray on the bench, although compared to Curry, his superstar color is not enough, but as long as he is on the floor, referring to the Murray play in the playoffs of previous years, a stable output of 20+ is still not a problem for him, but at this time, he can only stare dryly off the field due to injury.
Although the next game is to return to the Nuggets home, but their own lack of major generals, and the opponent is getting better and better, this set of duels looks like it should be an early end. For Mr. Yo, the goal of this season is actually predestined when the team is constantly injured, so it may be more important for him to finish early and maintain good health.
