He is averaging 25.5 points and 6.3 assists in the three wins, but he has plenty of help. Jokic, the reigning MVP and a finalist for a second trophy this season, has done what he can to help Denver get a win. But the Nuggets had Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. to help Nikola Jokic accomplish that. Denver was blown out in the first two games but lost a close Game 3 at home on Thursday night. The Denver Nuggets know the history. Everyone knows the history.

Warriors vs. Nuggets Odds, Game 4 Preview, Prediction: Bet Golden ... (The Action Network)

Raheem Palmer breaks down Game 4 between the Golden State Warriors and Denver Nuggets and shares his best bet.

The Nuggets pushed as hard they could in Game 3, got an MVP-caliber performance from Jokic, forced 16 turnovers, had a 29.7% Offensive Rebound Rate and shot 42.3% from downtown, yet they still lost by five. Despite a solid offensive output, it almost doesn’t matter considering that they don’t have the personnel to slow down this Warriors team on defense. Much of that was to be expected as role players tend to shoot better at home, but the Warriors fouled too often in Game 3 by allowing a 27.5% Free Throw Rate, the highest in the series. After two subpar games on the road, Jokic returned to MVP form with his best game of the series, scoring 37 points on 14-of-22 (63.6%) shooting along with 18 rebounds and five assists. The Warriors still have a major advantage in guard play, and that prevailed in Game 3. The Warriors’ new Death Lineup of Poole, Thompson, Curry, Wiggins and Draymond Green has outscored the Nuggets by 6.8 points per 100 possessions with an Offensive Rating of 142.6 and a Defensive Rating of 105.8 in 23 minutes during the postseason. Unfortunately, there are no moral victories in sports, and there definitely aren’t any in the NBA Playoffs. It’s not a surprise to see that this team shot 18-of-40 (45%) from behind the arc in Game 3. After winning Games 1 and 2 by a combined 36 points, it appeared the Warriors would sleepwalk through the rest of this series. Still, you can look at that stretch as more of an aberration than anything to be concerned about as the Warriors proved to be battle tested, with several different players making all the clutch plays when they needed them, including Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole. Despite being overmatched for much of this series, the Nuggets have shown no signs of giving up. History hasn’t been kind to teams that go down 3-0 in a best of seven playoff series.

Why is Stephen Curry coming off the bench for Warriors? New ... (Sporting News)

Through Golden State's first three postseason games, Warriors coach Steve Kerr has opted to start third-year guard Jordan Poole over Curry. Poole has delivered ...

TBD TBD TBD TBD TBD TBD He is a future Hall of Famer after all. In Golden State's three games against the Nuggets in the first round, Poole is averaging 28.7 points, 4.7 assists, three rebounds and a steal in 32.7 minutes. Poole's play is the reason Golden State has emerged as a championship contender. Plus, Curry is able to generate offense and make game-winning plays all by himself. In Game 1, Curry played close to 22 minutes and in Game 2, played close to 23 minutes. If the Warriors want to make a deep run in the postseason, they need Curry to be healthy and as close to 100 percent as he can be.

The Denver Nuggets live to fight another day, hanging on to beat the Golden State Warriors, 126-121, on Sunday to force a Game 5 back in San Francisco.

"That was really fun to watch...I was at peace all game regardless of the result because of how we were playing. With Jokic out of the game for defensive purposes, the Warriors faced a crucial inbounds play, trailing by two with 33.5 seconds left. Kerr said after the game that they were going for a quick two-for-one, but that he "would like that play call back." He also made one of the biggest shots of the game in the fourth quarter, when the Warriors decided to play a box-and-one, with Kevon Looney on Jokic to prevent him from making a play. "They were more physical with him tonight ... That's to be expected," Warriors coach Steve Kerr said after the game. They did that on Sunday, and forced a Game 5. He was effective as a facilitator, however, dishing out nine assists. The biggest contributor was Morris, who went shot-for-shot with Thompson and made all five of his 3-pointers in the first eight minutes of the third quarter. Rookie Bones Hyland made three straight 3-pointers during a big stretch in the second quarter and Will Barton made the game-clinching 3 from the corner with eight seconds left.

There are two to three positive defenders on the entire healthy roster, and I don’t see it happening, but if the Nuggets were to win this game they would need to play better defense than they have played throughout the series. The Nuggets never quite hit their stride in the regular season, and they fell on their faces in the playoffs. The Denver Nuggets have been eviscerated by the Golden State Warriors in the first 3 games of this series.

Warriors vs. Nuggets - Game Recap - April 24, 2022 - ESPN (ESPN)

Get a recap of the Golden State Warriors vs. Denver Nuggets basketball game.

Warriors: Thompson was 7 of 11 from beyond the arc but his teammates were just 5 of 23 on 3-pointers. His final 3 was a 33-footer that capped a 14-2 run with Jokic catching a breather on the bench after scoring or assisting on 20 of Denver's first 23 points. “We needed that,” Kerr said. “Those big shots don't faze me,” Hyland said. In the ensuing tussle, Gordon and Thompson were assessed a double technical. ... Hyland finished with 15 points. “It's what I do really well.” “Can I say we want them right where we want them? “We live to fight another day.” “But the focus now goes to heading home and the back in front of our fans” with a chance to close it out at home, Kerr said. Thompson said the Warriors don't want to come back to Denver until next season “because a win by them and anything's possible.” “We got to go with the attitude like all right, it's a must-win,” Thompson said.

Hint as Warriors forced to make big Steph call; unlikely hero for champs — NBA Playoff Wrap.

Milwaukee began the second half with a 9-2 run for a game-high 65-43 edge. The Warriors now face a big call for Game 5 on whether to finally inject Curry back into the starting line-up. A Curry layup, Andrew Wiggins dunk and Thompson jumper pulled the Warriors within 115-112 with 3:32 remaining. “We’ve got to keep up our defence,” he said. Chicago answered with an 17-3 spurt to pull within 68-60, only for the Bucks to reel off the next 11 points, Antetokounmpo scoring six and assisting on an Allen 3-pointer in the run for a 79-60 edge. They can all make plays.

Warriors' Game 4 loss vs. Nuggets filled with silver linings (NBC Sports Bay Area)

The Warriors deserved to lose Game 4 and almost won it anyways. It's a learning experience for a group that plans to come out in Game 5 with a different ...

The Warriors looked like a juggernaut in pummeling the Nuggets in Games 1 and 2. We'd like to not travel back to Denver. We have to come with the mindset that we have something to prove, that it's a must-win. We got to go home and take care of our business and close out the game and not come back to Denver." And part of winning playoff basketball games on the road is executing, being poised, understanding what’s happening, and sticking to the game plan. The fact that we had a lead with a minute and a half [left] speaks to who we are, but it was kind of a miracle at that point." As long as Game 4 isn't a harbinger of things to come, there's reason to view it as a learning experience for a team that is still new to playoff basketball as a unit. The bench, outside of Curry and a Jonathan Kuminga burst in the second quarter, was a zero. Sloppy play, poor shooting and a lack of execution allowed the Nuggets to have a sliver of life. "We were much more cohesive as a group in terms of creating good shots and taking care of the ball. Steve Kerr sensed it as ESPN cameras caught the Warriors coach telling his team early on to stop trying to go for the kill shot and just execute. The Warriors' veteran bodies won't get a week to rest and recharge. The Warriors wanted the sweep badly.
