Nuggets have been an awful offensive rebounding team most of this season, but that’s changed in DeMarcus Cousins’ seven games. Denver has a 33.4 OREB% when Cousins plays — that would rank 2nd in the NBA this season. Three offensive rebounds in nine minutes for Cousins tonight. – 11:56 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets
This was nasty, @Austin Rivers 🤧 pic.twitter.com/9HRR7BmjFj – 11:54 PM Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Warriors are 28-for-40 inside the arc (70 percent) and 9-for-30 outside it (30 percent) – 11:54 PM Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs
Nuggets are not folding through 3 quarters. Odd to see a team playing at 80% and making all kinds of mental mistakes but also hanging in there, but the Nuggets are making their season off of being odd. – 11:53 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors
FOURTH QUARTER TIME 🗣 pic.twitter.com/wsfhMcK1vj – 11:52 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets
We have ourselves a ball game🍿 pic.twitter.com/J51RqhvQeE – 11:50 PM Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Horrible end-of-quarter management from Bones and the Nuggets. Didn’t need to foul at 1.1, and he didn’t need to foul there either. – 11:49 PM Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
Patrick Beverley after tonight’s loss to Toronto:
“We’re just the 7th seed. We want to catch Denver, we want to catch Dallas. We want to catch those teams. And in order to do that we gotta play consistent offensively and defensively.” – 11:47 PM Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs
Jokic at 26 / 17 / 3 with 15 minutes left in the game. Unbelievable. – 11:45 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors
that’s nice, JP

Curry being 1 of 6 from 3 and it not being any sort of surprise is the most annoying thing about this season by far – 11:44 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets
Jok3r🃏 pic.twitter.com/nMNZQkpqvy – 11:44 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Jokic checks out with 26 points and 17 rebounds. #Nuggets are down 9. This bench stretch might determine whether he’s done until next Thursday. – 11:44 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
The Suns are 20-2 since the calendar turned to 2022. They enter the break at 47-10, six up on the Warriors in the loss column with only 25 games left. That #1 seed feels just about on ice. – 11:43 PM Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs
This game was gettable for Denver, but only one player showed up. That’s okay – but please sit Jokic down so he can get out of the Chase Center in one piece. After seeing that AD clip on my timeline a hundred times I do not need that to be Nikola. We already got the warning shot. – 11:37 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors

Alright, time to get Bryn Forbes in there. – 11:31 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Game is slowly getting unmanageable for the #Nuggets. They’re struggling to get the ball inside, and then on top of that, they’re turning it over. We’re at 15 TOs (for 22 points) and counting. Some of these possessions, Malone won’t even watch. – 11:30 PM Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs
Nuggets, a public service announcement: the Warriors have arms AND hands. They will put them up when you pass. Please be aware. – 11:30 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets

Utah gets the last hoop of the half to go up 53-46.
Third time this game that a loose ball fell into the hands of an open Jazz player, as Bogdanovic collected a deflection for a layup. (The killer deflection in the 4th at GSW fell right to Klay Thompson for a 3) – 11:16 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors

Halftime rotations for the Nuggets as they trail the Warriors 63-54.
-Joker is trying to do things by himself. 16 points and 15 rebounds
-Other 4 starters have combined for 12 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists
-Forbes with 13 points on 5/7 off the bench. Keeping Denver in this pic.twitter.com/gZatZGTv2i – 11:13 PM Chris Dempsey @chrisadempsey
No matter what happens in this game tonight, the #Nuggets No. 1 area to fix after the All-Star break will be turnovers, and in specific, points off of them. At halftime, the Warriors have 18 points already off of 12 Nuggets turnovers. Denver has allowed 19.2 in the last 12 games. – 11:12 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
At the half: Warriors 63, Nuggets 54
-Curry/Kuminga 12 each, Poole 10
-GPII putting pepper in the defense
-6-21 from 3
-FG%: GSW 53.1/DEN 43.8
-Jokic: 16 pts, 15 rebs – 11:12 PM Duvalier Johnson @DuvalierJohnson
Nikola Jokic is in takeover mode. He’s up to 16 points and 15 rebounds at the half.
Nikola Jokic has 16 points and 15 rebounds at the half. Just imagine if that was ANY other star in the league. – 11:11 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets

Warriors had success targeting Nikola Jokic in space with their small lineups in the first half. A few clips: Kuminga back cut past him, Wiggins easy mid-range after a switch, Payton dunk when Jokic ignored him. pic.twitter.com/kentlAvvns – 11:08 PM Michael Singer @msinger
That helper to Jeff Green was Joker’s first assist of the game. He’s also got 16 points and 13 rebounds in 15 minutes. – 11:04 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Real problem for the #Nuggets this half is their defense. Warriors, shooting 57%, haven’t felt them in the least. GSW already with 28 points inside, 10 FB points and 26 from the bench. Denver’s turned it over 9 times for 16 points. Recipe for disaster against this team. – 11:01 PM Kerith Burke @KerithBurke
I know we’ve talked about Kuminga guarding LeBron and Jokic….but GP2 has done the same – 11:00 PM Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs
Denver seems surprised that defense is being played in this game. Lots of deflections and steals on mediocre attempts and passes. – 10:57 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors
GPII is the tallest 6’3” dude on the planet pic.twitter.com/OA0UmcrZMx – 10:57 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
Jokic goads Kuminga into his third foul. To the bench with 3:37 left in half – 10:57 PM Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
It’s not every day Jokic gets blocked by a 6-foot-3… whatever position GPII plays.
Gary celebrates with several pushups. – 10:56 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Jokic with a bizarre 14-point, 11-rebound … and 0 assist half so far. – 10:56 PM Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
GP2 blocks Jokic, then gets off a few push-ups in the paint to the cheers of Chase Center – 10:55 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
Jokic goes to take GP2 to the cup
Gets stoned
Crowd loves it – 10:55 PM Harrison Wind @HarrisonWind
Nice call by Nikola Jokic’s favorite referee, Bill Kennedy, on that flagrant 1. – 10:54 PM Kristian Winfield @Krisplashed
Seth Curry says Steve Nash’s halftime speech fueled the Nets’ 28-point rally: “Everybody listened, took the message in and went out and played together.” – 10:54 PM Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe
Just looking up the next Warriors-Memphis game …
-It’s at Memphis
-It’s on March 28 — Game No. 76 of the season
-It’s the second night of a back-to-back
-It’s the fifth of a five-game road trip
-The five game trip takes place over seven days – 10:54 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
Kuminga, having a tremendous game, is hit with a flagrant-1 or unnecessary contract on Jokic. Close call, not unfair – 10:53 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Flagrant foul on Kuminga. Joker gets his r-e-s-p-e-c-t? – 10:53 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors
JK is truly a Rising Star

Kuminga with a chop to Jokic’s head – 10:52 PM Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs
I would like Denver to stop airballing, maybe. – 10:51 PM Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Kuminga with 12 points in 11 minutes. And he’s showing just how many different ways he can score — from deep (maybe not highly suggest), attacking the rim, and as a lob threat. – 10:51 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Bones throws an entry pass off the backboard, and Malone immediately calls for Monte to check in. – 10:48 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors
this move is ELITE.

GPII back on the court after twisting his angle. – 10:47 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
GP2 is back. Guess he’s OK. He definitely is needed – 10:47 PM Stephen Noh @StephNoh
Nets snapped an 11-game losing streak and have won their last two after adding Seth Curry and Andre Drummond.
Curry is averaging 21.5 / 5.5 / 4 on 53% shooting from both the field and 3 since joining the Nets. He could be the glue guy for that team.
sportingnews.com/ca/nba/news/hi… – 10:46 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Jonathan Kuminga and Jordan Poole entered off the bench at the same time. In eight minutes, Kuminga with 10 points, Poole with six points, five assists. Some offensive life from a bench that had been quiet lately. – 10:46 PM Jovan Buha @jovanbuha
First quarter: Lakers 27, Jazz 27
Anthony Davis and Donovan Mitchell each have 15 points. Russell Westbrook has 7 points and 3 assists. The Lakers cooled off after a hot start, but are playing with a similar spirit to the Golden State game. They have 14 points in the paint. – 10:46 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets
Bryn again from deep👀🔥 – 10:46 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets
Bryn starting this one off hot🔥 pic.twitter.com/ByuCO0Il2s – 10:44 PM Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Bones being small and light is exacerbating an already difficult finishing problem around the rim. That’s not going to improve this season, and it will probably take multiple years of strength and conditioning at the NBA level. – 10:43 PM Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Grizzlies lose at home to the Blazers, giving the Warriors a chance for a little breathing room for the #2 seed heading to the break. If Warriors win tonight, they’ll be 2.5 games up. Lose and still 1.5 games. – 10:42 PM Gordon Gross @GMoneyNuggs
Maybe Jokic “rolled an ankle” so he can take an injury leave from the ASG, hibernate for a week+ and then wake up refreshed and dominate again the second half of the season. – 10:41 PM Kerith Burke @KerithBurke
Jokic has 11/8 after the first quarter, my goodness – 10:38 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
After 1: Warriors 33, Nuggets 25
-Thompson/Kuminga 7 each
-13 FGs, 11 assists
-14-11 rebounding edge
-Starting GP2 improved defense and pace – 10:37 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets

Nikola Jokic tweaked his right ankle just now. Didn’t look too serious but he walked to the bench with a slight limp. He checks out at around his normal rest late in the first. – 10:34 PM Duvalier Johnson @DuvalierJohnson
Nikola Jokic is already up to 11 points and 8 rebounds in the first quarter.
Looks like he might’ve rolled his ankle on his last play and headed to the bench. – 10:34 PM Drew Shiller @DrewShiller
Holy moly that Jonathan Kuminga move/finish! – 10:33 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Jokic walks off with a slight limp after working his right foot/ankle a little bit. Looks like team trainers are looking at him on the bench. – 10:33 PM Chris Dempsey @chrisadempsey
Golden State’s Draymond Green comes over to the stands at the Chase Center and sits with his family after the 2nd timeout of the first quarter vs. the #Nuggets. Aww. Green’s been out due to a back injury. pic.twitter.com/YZyRIuaJhp – 10:33 PM Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Jokić has 8 rebounds. The rest of the Nuggets have 2. – 10:32 PM Denver Nuggets @nuggets

Feels like Nurkic turns into Jokic when he faces the Grizzlies. – 10:30 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Bones checking in after the TO is over, by the way. – 10:29 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Up until a minute ago, the #Nuggets were sitting on one assist throughout the first seven min. of the game. They’re now up to three. You can tell by Malone’s reaction whether they’re getting quality shots or not. If it’s inside-out, attack the paint, he’ll applaud. If not, well.. – 10:28 PM Harrison Wind @HarrisonWind
Nikola Jokic is going to have to do it himself tonight. Rest of his teammates are already in South Beach. – 10:27 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors

Gary Payton II started the game well. A couple buckets, a steal that set up a Steph Curry 3, a bunch of needed defensive energy. But he tweaked something late in his stint and limped to the locker room. – 10:25 PM Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
It appears GPII’s ankles just gave out underneath him. He gets up limping and heads straight to the locker room. – 10:24 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors

Gary Payton II is . . . making an impact. And now he’s limping into the locker room. – 10:24 PM Michael Singer @msinger
Rough start for the #Nuggets, who are doing a lot of settling and not a lot of moving. Already with two turnovers for five points. Warriors up 12-4 less than four minutes into the game. – 10:18 PM Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
Michael Malone doesn’t wait long to call a timeout, coming off the bench after two quick turnovers and a Klay 3-ball. Warriors 12, Nuggets 4, 8:43 Q1 – 10:17 PM Alex Schiffer @Alex__Schiffer
Final: Nets rally from 28 down to beat the Knicks 111-106. Cam Thomas was brilliant, Seth Curry was lethal and LaMarcus Aldridge was the steady veteran alongside them. The Knicks made the Mets proud of that choke-job. Nets back home for the Wizards tomorrow before the break. – 10:13 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors

DeMar DeRozan’s streak of 7 straight games with 35 points and 50% shooting will be the longest in NBA history, breaking a tie with Wilt.
Longest streaks by notable perimeter players:

LaMarcus Aldridge goes to the mid-range to put the Nets up 3 with 56.6 seconds left. He had Seth Curry in the corner if he wanted him. Knicks have left Curry alone far more than they should. – 10:02 PM Nick Friedell @NickFriedell
How do you leave Seth Curry, of all people, alone in the corner? To say Thibs is disgusted is an understatement. He can’t believe what he’s seeing.
The Knicks have let go of the rope. – 10:01 PM Micah Adams @MicahAdams13
The path to DeMar DeRozan actually winning the MVP is not that outrageous.
– Bulls can get the 1 seed
– CP and Book will split votes
– Durant is hurt
– LeBron’s team stinks
– Jokic’s team is middling
– Giannis’s team is coasting
– Embiid’s 76ers could finish 5th
– Curry’s slump – 9:59 PM Alex Schiffer @Alex__Schiffer
Seth Curry drills a 3. It’s 102-101 Nets with 2:15 left. – 9:59 PM Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Looks like the Warriors are starting:

Andrew Wiggins
Kevon Looney
Very small lineup, but plenty of plus defenders anyway. Denver’s going to need to emphasize off ball movement toward the front of the rim. – 9:54 PM Golden State Warriors @warriors

It’s going to be very obvious if the #Nuggets are already thinking about the All-Star break. The last thing Michael Malone told his guys at Wednesday’s shootaround was to stay engaged. “If we’re not, we’ll see really early,” Malone said.

Some teams the Wolves have a better offensive rating than this season:
– Brooklyn
– Denver
– Golden State
– Philadelphia
– Dallas
– LA Lakers
Which would mean, if this holds, that the MVP is coming from a team with a worse offense than the Wolves. – 5:26 PM Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
🆕 @TheAthletic
