If Golden State is serious, this could be a very good game. If they aren't serious, it could be a blow out. The most important aspect for Denver is probably going to be Jokic scoring down low; at least that's what I think.

Can't see GS not bringing it this game, but then again Denver also shows up against top tier competition. I'd love to see Beasley put up another 20pt+ game. I expect Murray to take the challenge that Curry represents, he loves to that kinda stuff.

Since he seems to LOVE playing against the Warriors, will Juancho have ANOTHER big game ?

When we score 37 points in the 1st quarter, who cares about defense. It is not like we playing against the best team of all times...

Oh wait... we need defense.

I had a feeling GS would bring it, 51 pts in Q constitutes “bringing it”

Jokic makes two fast dumb fouls early in the 1st, and then 3rd in the middle of the 2nd, but still, no reason to limit his minutes on just 12 when the team is bleeding. For what to "save him" if game going into blowout lose without him?

We lose this game already in 1st quarter after receiving shocking 51pts, but the team should play with passion in 2nd half anyway no matter on the scoreline.

Score by quarter, all favoring Golden State

51-38
28-22
33-23
30-28

47-35 rebounding favored Golden State

61% FG for Golden State
53% 3pt for Golden State

Well, we thought this would be a playoff atmosphere

Let be clear, this Golden State team is best ever team in basketball history, and when all three their scoring machines are red hot in same time shooting 18/28 for 3pt, nobody can stop them.

But it is not the problem to lose vs a team like GSW, but to lose on the embarrassing 30+ way. Not that I'm trying to find excuses, but refs stole from us 9 points in the middle of the 3rd (0 points instead 3+1 2+1 and 1 goaltending), so instead about 10 difference was still about 20 when comes that key 16-3 run in the late 3rd after which game is over.

No team in the NBA could have stopped that shooting display in the 1st quarter with today's defensive rules. Nothing you can do.

Barton should not be playing so many minutes until he can actually get back to himself, which would be a good time to trade him.

I thought Lyles was hurt, but it appears that he has just lost his spot in the rotation, it is time to trade him maybe with Barton.

Craig could do nothing against the Warriors starters, he was very ineffective and having him and Millsap both starting kills our offense, why can't Malone see that?

The one thing this should do is remind our young guys what kind of intensity they will be facing when they reach the playoffs.

I swear that Juancho has always done a good job guarding Durant in the past, why did we not try that last night instead of having Millsap try to guard him when it was obvious that Millsap could not keep up?

Really a wake up call, seems like our defense has not just slipped off, it's fallen into the depths. GSW shot the fricken' lights out, no team could have stood against that onslaught ( IMO, not even the Warriors themselves). In most games, our efforts would have been win worthy, just one of those nights, outclassed by the better team.

Here's a ;ott;e hope for ya'll, we still weren't playing at full strength. Barton still rusty, Harris out, IT2 still out and even Millsap isn't 100%. Would it have made up 30points ??? Only time will tell !!
