The second unit was what lost us this game. I think it's time to pull the plug on Wiseman-Kuminga together. They were the worst unit last game too. Wise had a pretty nice offensive game but his defense was pretty awful today. Made DeAndre Jordan look like prime DAJ. DDV was also ugly today. And Poole was super tentative. Combine it all in one lineup and well that second quarter happens.
Credit to Denver though. They had an answer every time it seemed like the Dubs had a shot. And it wasn't just Jokic. KCP and Brown were great pickups and hit some tough shots today. Fun game and had a 15% chance to steal it when it should have been 0%.
Sunday it’s the Kangz and good friend Mike Brown. Then our virtual seven game road trip in ten nights including both our games against Miami. Gonna be a rough one, gotta make sure we take care of business Sunday.
Preview: It's Strength in Numbers (again) - loaded Warriors host Nuggets

Loss is a loss but silver lining is Draymond looking like the old Dray. Idk how long he can play at this level but he was awesome tonight
A Bench loss. Beli’s Braun got a shout out from Jokic after the game
It felt like there were two key momentum killers during the 4th quarter comeback:
(1) JMG cutting the wrong way and Steph's pass missing him by a mile.
(2) Foul call on Dray during an awesome defensive stop of Jokic.
Both of them felt like they slowed or stalled out a run. Still, the Dubs got it within 1, and then Joker nailed a crazy bomb.

Ayton misses both FTs. Suns get the rebound, but they don't have enough time to shoot. Blazers win 113-111.
I think we can all agree Denver is a *strong* contender. This was without Jamal Murray, who pushes Bones back in the rotation 😯
Nurkic fouls Ayton, but Ayton misses the first FT.

Okay I book the first visit of the season with the cardiologist. Damn, so early.
Nuggets need to close out games much better if they want to contend this year. Efforts like tonight won't get the job done.
Blazers-Suns tied with 33.9 seconds left to go in OT.
That Poole bucket should of been an and 1, overall great game that was entertaining. The bench kinda killed us this game imo
So, Brown was WIDE open and it was a fine pass but c’mon, the hyperventilating is getting tiresome. Whatever.
Entertaining game! Doesn’t really sting.
Glad Jokic is OK after that collision
