After Action Report

In Golden State, the Warriors squeaked past the Nuggets 98-97. Ugly basketball, but the Warriors did just enough. Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Warriors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
