IN THE AFTERMATH of another frustrating loss, Joe Lacob paced the hallway in the depths of Chase Center, just outside the room where the Golden State Warriors hold their postgame news conferences.
Warriors coach Steve Kerr hadn't yet entered. His team had just blown an 18-point lead to the defending champion Denver Nuggets, who closed the game on a 25-4 run, capped by a buzzer-beating half-court heave from Nikola Jokic. The defeat had marked another body blow in a season defined by them. The Warriors were 11 games into Draymond Green's second suspension, this one indefinite.
