Stephen Curri’s warriors wiped Jokic, Murri-less Nuggets in the ugly loss

For the last three seasons, Nikola Jokic was Kruptonite Kryptonite Golden State Warriors. You headed to this game, Denver Nuggets won the last eight meetings with Dubs. So, when it is crucial from this game from three times, next to this game, in addition to Jamal Murray, it was a feeling that warriors could interrupt ruby ​​edge in eight games that broke them on them.

This relaxed behavior has converted this game in the ninth loss of deep in a series for Denver.

The warriors fell on Nuggets 114-105, Assembling their deadline for conquering seven games. The energy of the golden state was a question from the very beginning. In his press conference, Steve Kerr reprimanded the performance of torment.

“There is no good energy. No good body language,” Kerr told reporters. “I feel early. It was a hard night.”

Kerr’s frustrations were wounds, testifying heated conversation with his assistants after the first quarter.

Part of these frustrations came from Aaron Gordon who crush warriors, however, he wanted. Nuggets has set a tone early with Gordon attacking Dubs’s graduates of Quentin, relentless in the first quarter forcing Dubs to change their defensive tasks. But did it play the defense of the zone or putting Kevon Looney at him, the warriors had no answers to Gordon. He finished playing-high 38 points, in addition to five offensive jumps and three assists.

Despite the hot night than Gordon, the warriors had the opportunity to take control of this game. After returning from a deficit of 12 points at half time, Dubs led in the fourth quarter. Thanks to Jimmy Butler, which is shot by placing Nuggets in the bonus, the warriors cut the lead to three with 6:48 other in the game.

But again, Gordon again in rescue, caused a 7-0 response that starts with three. From there, warriors could not collect stamina to avoid one of their worst season losses.

“Tired” Stephen Curri sister painful back

To become even worse, Stephen Curri is now questionable to return this back in the back until the warriors face Milvaukee Bucks. It was a heavy game for two-bed MVP. He finished only 20 points at six of 21 shootings together with seven reversals. Curri was already a questionnaire who entered this game with painful backs, but the loss of this game, while the 37-year-old played hard for 36 minutes.

In the same interview with the afternoon, Kerr said curry journalists He was “tired” immediately after he asked about his performance undergoing.

“He’s tired. Steph carries us a month. He was amazing. We have to rest him,” Kerr said. “You could see it, he doesn’t have his energy right now.”

When the tracking issue is set in terms of the availability of curry versus BUCKS, Kerr continued to emphasize fatigue curry.

“Potentially, I have to talk to Rick (Celebratini), but he is currently exhausted. We must absolutely consider give him the night (excluded).”

In his interview after the name, Sam Curry emphasized that he was hurting back Since the problem is more than the fatigue he asked about Kerr’s “tired” comments.

“I feel good. Apparently I didn’t play great at all, so everyone, including coach, will try to find out why” Curry explained. “I feel like it’s (it’s) more, so my back I do. See how it reacts tomorrow.”

Reversions, missed free pitchers, ejected

But the Curry’s bad game was far from the only problem with Dubs in the loss in Denver. Many warrior bad habits before Butler trade breeded her ugly heads in this loss.

For starters, Dubs had 20 reversals, which were translated into 24 points of twist from Denver. They were such a transformed coaches hated: the blind, lazy passable passes that allowed Nuggets to become easy to set up at speed. The slovenness of the golden state undoed 22 reversions they forced to defend from Nuggets team that do not look perfect without their primary balls.

Second, the warriors left a lot of meat on the bone on the foul line. In the last 16 games, Dubsi were on average 21.1 free throws per game and 84.5% shooting from the line; Both team statistics first ranked in the league during the stretch.

But versus Nuggetam, they shot 15 out of 27 on free throws. Half of the missed half of these misses Jonathan Kuminga and Kevon Looney, each disappeared three free throws; Were bad free throw shooters all year round. But Butler, who average 84.3% from the line for his career, was unused six of ten of the line.

And then he killed death on the date. Denver has launched warriors 53 to 38. I also included 19 offensive jumps to 18 points second chance. It was as if Kerr said: Nuggets had a full different level of energy and struggle, for example in the jump, which is 95% in relation to effort and hustle.

Full of western conferences

Last night, the warriors avoided a complete catastrophe thanks to the Indian Obi Toppin walking with wood wood with overtime game. The pacers abolished MinnesoTin’s edge to conquer seven games, holding Dubsa barely ahead of them in the race for a wired sixth seed in the west.

But there were good news done while Ruckete Houston used the loss of warriors to get them in front of the rooms four and a half matches. That loss put a race for fifth seeds in doubt.
