Denver has a lot to fix in Game 3, but not giving away points, being much more physical, and how Jokic attacks the Warriors Poole Party lineup are the main aspects I will be watching. – 10:02 PM

After Jordan Poole dropped 29 points in Game 2 against the Nuggets on Monday night, Drake chimed in with a reaction on Instagram. warriorswire.usatoday.com/2022/04/19/dra…10:00 PM

Strong Nuggets crowd. The team needs HCA to be a factor tonight. Gotta be loud. – 9:54 PM
Brian Mahoney @briancmahoney
So many flawed possessions that it’s hard to tell who’s going to win this series. But it’s easy to predict that Warriors are going to crush whoever it is. – 9:42 PM
Kerith Burke @KerithBurke
Same starters for the Warriors. Steph continues off the bench. – 9:37 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Steph Curry will come off the bench again in Game 3. Same starters for Warriors: Poole, Klay, Wiggins, Draymond, Looney. – 9:33 PM
Michael Singer @msinger
No changes to #Nuggets starting lineup: Monte, Will, AG, Jeff Green and Joker. – 9:32 PM

Michael Malone on the pace the Nuggets need to play: “We’re in a Pinto. And they’re in a Maserati. We have to slow it down. Especially when things are not going our way.” – 8:30 PM
J. Michael Falgoust @ThisIsJMichael
The way Pat Bev is getting in the paint you’d think he was a threat like Steph Curry flaming 3s. Can’t understand how you fail to make him a shooter/scorer. On ball D is 👎🏾 – 8:25 PM
Mike Vorkunov @MikeVorkunov
“We’re in a Pinto,” Nuggets coach Mike Malone said. “They’re in a Maserati.”
He wants Denver to play slower and through Nikola Jokic in Game 3 vs. the Warriors.
“When the runs have happened we try to play fast like them. We can’t match them… We have to slow things down.” – 8:25 PM
Katy Winge @katywinge
Coach Malone said when the runs for Golden State happen, the Nuggets have found themselves trying to keep up with their pace.
“We’re in a Pinto and they’re in a Maserati.”
Denver has to be able to control turnovers and execute, not fuel their break. – 8:23 PM
Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS
‘We can’t match that We’re in a Pinto, they’re in a Maserati.’
Nuggets coach Michael Malone, conceding that his team can’t play at the rapid pace that best suits the Warriors, particularly their small-ball shock squad – 8:23 PM
Vinny Benedetto @VBenedetto
Michael Malone says Facundo Campazzo will be in the rotation tonight because he knows Facu will make the Warriors feel him. Malone doesn’t want to go down without a fight. Eat your heart out, Argentina. – 8:19 PM
Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
So, it’s pretty clear that Steven Adams is more valuable than Jokic, right? – 8:11 PM

In Game 1 of the #Nuggets-Warriors series, Jeff Green made NBA history when he became the first player ever to play for 8 (!) different playoff teams.
What does that say about him?
“That I’m a mother******** winner,” Green told me.

Playoff edition of the Warriors mailbag! Got tons of good questions, including one on how Jordan Poole might be upping his market value with each passing playoff game: sfchronicle.com/sports/warrior…6:19 PM

NBA GMs on Draymond before the 2012 draft: ‘What is he?’
GMs on Draymond since 2015: ‘Can we find our own Draymond?’
Warriors ignore sporadic ‘trade Draymond’ noise because they’d have to find another. All GMs know how hard that is. – 6:00 PM

Release: PointsBet announced early payouts for all bettors who placed a wager on Nikola Jokic to be named NBA MVP in NJ and a few other states. You can’t bet on NBA MVP and other individual player awards in NY though state policymakers appear to want to change that down the road – 5:09 PM

📅 On this day in 2004, the @Minnesota Timberwolves Kevin Garnett had 20 points, 22 rebounds, and 10 assists in a 95-81 win over the Nuggets in their first-round series.
Garnett is one of only seven players in NBA history to record at least 20p/20r/10a in a playoff game. pic.twitter.com/8rj9WY8Fr84:01 PM
