Turns out, we're not invincible... but the second half defensive turnaround was nice.

Warriors have still not let go of the rope in a game all season. They're a few friendly bounces away from being like 32-2.

OPJ with 0 pts after his outburst on Xmas was disappointing

Say, what exactly did the Warriors do to make the Nuggets score only 29 points in the 2nd half?

Kerr: if you need 3 points, put the fucking best shooters on the court

Wtf is Looney and Igoudala there?

Well, we know the defense doesn't *completely* fall apart without Draymond I guess.

Despite the complaining (and I do think you could probably do better than Andre and Looney when you have 2 seconds, basically no time to pass, and the opponent knows you NEED a 3) this was a pretty inspiring second half.

Basically the game got good as soon as I started watching in the second half :/

Things to fix:

-FREE THROWS (I'm talking to you, JTA and Kuminga)

-Turnovers

-1st half defense

Curry, Tuco once said:

When you have to shoot shoot don't pass the ball to Kuminga

This was a good development game for the rookie

I know we missed a lot of FTs....but that Curry missed FT turned out to be big.

How did the warriors shoot so poorly (including free throws)? I wanna say it’s anomalous but my bitter monkey brain is telling me it’s happened quite a few teams this season.
