The Nuggets went in to Oracle Arena and dominated the defending champs, 114-103. Kenneth Faried had an impressive double-double and Emmanuel Mudiay continued to improve on both ends of the court.
In a preseason matchup that saw both teams playing their starters for most of the first three quarters, the Nuggets showed that they have the talent and determination to hang with anybody in this league. The Warriors came out with all of the swag and confidence of a team that just won an NBA championship, hitting pull-up threes and making incredible plays in the half court.
