Warriors beat Nuggets to match best National Basketball Association start of 15-0
Golden State matches the start of the 1948-49 Washington Capitols and the ’93-94 Houston Rockets. The Warriors, in a game played this past Thursday, weren’t just down by double digits to the Clippers – the Warriors found themselves down by a full 23 points. “Whether or not we get it, it really doesn’t affect our ultimate goal of trying to win a championship…It would be something nice to get along the way”, Walton admitted. That’s what we’re fueled by. “You never know if you’ll ever be in this position again”.
“We have the players that we need, everybody fits their role, we have a great coaching staff and a great organization”.
The two best players in the National Basketball Association have been named the players of the week.
The 2-11 Lakers have yet to beat a team that now has a winning record, and they have both the worst record and worst point differential per game (-7.2) in the Western Conference.
The Golden State Warriors defeated the Denver Nuggets 118-105 at the Pepsi Center on Sunday. I think it comes with a lot of health.
“They’re one of the teams that I’ll look at the schedule and watch them”, Dawson said Tuesday on The Jeff Blair Show on Sportsnet 590 The Fan. But don’t think that makes them one dimensional.
But Golden State is on a mission to be the greatest team of all time. “I was proud of him”.
The Warriors understand what they’re doing right now. “Then there would be a conversation to talk about”. In his place, assistant coach Luke Walton has been the ideal leader, giving steady, even-handed guidance.
Serge Ibaka had 16 points, nine rebounds and a key late blocked shot for Oklahoma City, which was without star forward Kevin Durant (injured hamstring) for the sixth straight game.
Curry and his teammates see no reason to slow down now.
“I’m pleased with all our young guys because this is a hard business to be in when you’re so young”, coach Sam Mitchell said. “That’s the reason we’re 15-0”. The Nuggets, young and precocious, were content to run with the Dubs at altitude, and the intensity of the winning streak – it’s made nearly meaningless regular-season games feel like playoff contests – was showing. We weren’t lucky to win a championship.
But he’s far from the only Warrior to ride the tech wave.
