In the first round of this season's playoff series, Golden State Warriors star Curry has played the first four games as a substitute. At the same time, the Golden State Warriors also successfully scored 3-1, maintaining the initiative of the score lead. The Situation for the Warriors is very good, and the results of the facts continue to prove that Curry is the key code for the Warriors to win no matter what position. With the G5 war, the Warriors returned to their home court to accept the Challenge of the Nuggets.
For the Nuggets, the idea of advancing to the Western Conference semifinals was basically broken. But as the saying goes, to win is to win beautifully, and to lose is to lose without complaint or regret. The Nuggets, who are fighting backwaters, are bound to play the spirit of twelve points, and the Golden State Warriors want to advance to the Western Conference semifinals with a single blow, I am afraid it will not be so easy. However, Curry's injury has improved and he has returned to the starting position, and the Warriors are bound to get tickets to the Western Conference semifinals as quickly as possible.
In the first half of the game, Jokic was in good shape, sending 6 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 steal in the first quarter, and 6 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block in the second quarter. At the same time, Aaron Gordon also stepped forward, shooting 100% from the field in the first quarter, delivering 12 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist. Despite Jokic's steady output and Aaron Gordon's explosive data contribution, the Nuggets failed to take a lead in the first quarter and instead let the Warriors play a 30-25 score, but when they entered the second quarter, they still trailed by five points in the first quarter.
The two sides drew 48-48 and continued the next game. Entering the second half of the competition, the Nuggets' state is still hot, playing a 30-22 score in the third quarter, taking an 8-point lead and taking the initiative to take the lead. Judging by this situation, the Nuggets do have a better chance of winning that game. But unfortunately, although Jokic handed over a key 12 points in the last quarter, the other players on the team did not give a force, allowing the Warriors to play a 32-20 single-quarter score and complete a 12-point reversal in the final quarter.
In the end, after the regular time of the fourth quarter, the Warriors won the game with a score of 102-98, and with a big score of 4-1, became the first team in the West to advance to the Western Conference semifinals. Curry returned to the starting position, still performing efficiently, sending out a comprehensive 30+5+5 stats. However, Jordan Poole lost the magic of the past, only gaining nearly 26 minutes of playing time, and delivering 8 points, 1 rebound and 4 assists. However, the other players in the team who started the game have reached double digits in points, and the overall performance is still satisfactory.
On the side of the Denver Nuggets, who saw an away loss and thus ended the season early. Jokic got 4 fouls before entering the fourth quarter of the showdown, but he was still able to withstand the huge pressure, continued to send the key 12 points in the final quarter, and sent a comprehensive data of 30+19+8 in the whole game. However, despite Jokic's personal performance, the Nuggets failed to become the final winner and had to advance into the offseason.
It is worth saying that Cousins on the bench once again proved his worth in the final battle of the season: he delivered 19 points and 4 rebounds! There is no doubt that with the amazing scoring performance of this game, Cousins has a little more confidence and chips when he looks for his next home in the offseason.
