SAN FRANCISCO – Jordan Poole held his 3-point stroke just as his fellow Splash Brothers had taught him.
For the second consecutive game Poole got loose, and for the second consecutive game it cost the Nuggets dearly.
The Warriors hammered the Nuggets, 126-106, in Monday’s Game 2 to stake a dominant 2-0 lead over their reeling opponent. Nikola Jokic didn’t stay for the end of it.
His fourth-quarter ejection — the result of his second technical foul — was a low point on a night where there were many of them. Frustrated with the whistle — and perhaps the talent disparity overall — Jokic stormed at an official to earn the boot with seven minutes left in the game.
