In the series preview leading up to Game 1 of this matchup between the Golden State Warriors and the Denver Nuggets, this is what I had to say about letting Nikola Jokiu0107 “get his”:
“The talent and depth of the Warriors trumps that of the Nuggets. Make no mistake — Aaron Gordon, Will Barton, and Monte Morris aren’t slouches. Forget about them for too long, and they can punish you in all sorts of ways.
“But they’re not Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. Jokiu0107 will get his numbers, but he could sure use secondary shot creators who can relieve some of the pressure off of him in terms of offensive output.
