We will stop in the Rockies to start the Denver Nuggets-Golden State Warriors match.
Chills for the Nuggets in their most recent game, with Malone's team leading 16 points at halftime but still losing to the Nets thanks to Durand's 34 points. Jokic played his violin, which continued at his known standards (23-8-11, he also had 7 steals), and Murray was close with 20 points. The main problem of the team was the defense, the score proves the truth of the speech (116-122). At 5-6 their record, below the levels one would expect for a tied set without many changes compared to last season. One explanation is that he advanced to the Eastern finals and was slow to leave the bubble, so he needs some time to roll. The near future is what will show if this interpretation is sufficient or in case the mixed results continue to look for the causes. However, in the last 6 he counts 4 victories, scoring 118 points on average.
The Warriors are also in their ascent, having the same record as their opponents in the last 6 (4-2), they left behind the bad start. Welcoming Indiana in the most recent, they lost 95-104 with low accuracy rates, which led to their worst productive game so far. Umbre and Wiggins, who are already the big question this year for Steve Kerr's team, are trying to find themselves. If they do not reach satisfactory performance standards, Steve Carey will prove himself, as the job of the other best player of the Californians (Dreymond Green) is not so much scoring but all other areas of the game. The return of the latter after injury has contributed significantly to the change of image for the better.
The Warriors play fast basketball, trying to win matches with their attack and with Green's guidance in defense, aiming to reduce bleeding in this area. On the other hand, Denver seems to be having difficulty in the defensive part, having a couple of absences that do not allow them to find rhythm, however, offensively, with Jokic dominating, they are usually very productive. I will bet at 2,05 in a combined market at Bet365, over 110,5 points for the Nuggets and Over 107,5 for the Warriors, expecting the players of both teams to be fundamentally targeted based on their talent.
