You probably bytched about Curry multiple times for his turnovers.
yep. 5 assists/ 5 turnovers. not good. the team had 9 turnovers, so he had more than half the team's total TOs. If that's westbrook, he's getting torched.

brought us home at the end tho

I missed the game, what they do different in the second half?
There was nothing alarmingly wrong with what they were doing in the first half, it's just nobody was really stepping up (Poole, Wiggins and Klay weren't doing anything on offense), they were missing open looks, and in typical Warriors' fashion were playing with their food. Poole was benched early in the 3rd, and they brought on more size, and threw different looks at Jokic and Gordon in the 4th - they essentially forced Jokic to beat them by himself. They then went to just feeding Steph and using him as a springboard to open up other guys rather than trying to balance out the offense because Klay and Poole simply didn't have it tonight.

A better coach wouldnt need a half to make surface level adjustments, but i'll let you cook for your man :sas2:
What were they doing wrong in the first half that the coaching staff were responsible for?

Poole, Wiggins and Klay not producing isn't on the coach (you've got to give them some opportunity at working it out themselves). Jokic and Cousins dominating because the Warriors don't have size isn't on the coach.

Almost looked like a rope a dope to me. I don't know what was going on in the 3rd but the Warriors were playing in mud. Little intensity, slow movement on defense, sloppy passing on offense. Seemed like they turned on the energy in the 4th, started moving their feet and stopped fouling. I think the Nuggets wore down by the 4th in every game as well.. they were settling more.
