It is not easy for the Warriors to win the game, after all, the Nuggets played very clearly in this game, they did not shoot too many three points in the game, in the fourth quarter of the game is to go to the hard chisel inside line frequently on the free throw line, relying on such a play Nuggets once occupied the lead, but unfortunately the Late Stage Nuggets still did not have a continuation strategy, plus Curry, Poole's play Warriors still laughed to the end. Clay is also the peak of his dream in this game, his play in the game helped the team very well, at the end of the game Clay got 26 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist, Curry here got 27 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.
Poole also had a good play in this game, but Poole was injured in the game and also made the fans feel sad, fortunately, Poole continued to play without a big problem, and Poole got 27 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists at the end of the game.
