Match Predict – Handicap (-6.5) for Warriors
The Denver Nuggets players seem to have worked very hard to finish in the top six and have no energy left for the playoffs. Of course, there is still a chance to tie and even take the lead, but the first game showed that the Nuggets have a lot of problems.
The Golden State Warriors have been preparing for this game and it was evident in the play. Stephan Curry was pulling away on defence, while Jordan Poole was quietly doing his job.
Total Match Points – Over 220.5
The Nuggets need to go forward in order to tie the score. The Warriors know exactly what to expect and are unlikely to let up, so we expect a productive encounter.
Home Side Points – Over 113.5
The Warriors have scored more than 113.5 points in three of their last five games.

The Golden State Warriors had a good chance to fight for first place in the Western Conference, but an injury to Stephan Curry forced the club to slow down. The team finished third in the main event, which was also a good result.
The Golden State Warriors’ opponent is Denver, who failed to oppose their opponent in the first game of the series. Steve Kerr’s team controlled the game and played their offensive game (123-107). Jordan Poole scored 30 points and was generally one of the best on the Chase Centre arena floor. In short, everything was going according to plan.
In the first game of the series, Jordan Poole scored 30 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists.

The Nuggets alternated wins and losses at the end of the regular season, so the team ended up in sixth place in the Western Conference. It seemed that Michael Melone’s guys had made the right conclusions, but the first game of the playoff series proved otherwise.
The Denver Nuggets tried to put up a fight against the Golden State Warriors, but even Nikola Jokic’s offensive efforts didn’t help (107-123). As you can see, the Nuggets’ defence was coming apart, so the head coach has much to work on, although the next game will be on the road again.
In the first game of the series, Nikola Jokic scored 25 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists.
