The Golden State Warriors put together one of their best performances of the year on Monday night, beating the Denver Nuggets 116-107. It was a game that had everything for Golden State: movement on offense, engagement on defense, a vintage game from Draymond Green, and a dynamic and historic performance from Steph Curry.
All that matters is that they won, and looked good doing so. But while we’re here, let’s see if they hit on their pregame keys to victory from my preview.
