Regular Season Round 101: Golden St.W. - Denver N. 112-97
Date: April 7, 2012
Denver's hopes of moving up in the Western Conference standings took another serious hit, and guard Ty Lawson is concerned the Nuggets are losing sight of the goal at hand. Lawson had some harsh words for his teammates following Denver's 112-97 loss to Golden State on Saturday - and for good reason. It marked the third time in the last two weeks that the Nuggets fell to a sub-.500 team and dropped them into the No. 8 seed in the West with Phoenix and Utah only a game behind. Instead of enhancing its playoff position, Denver is now on the fringe of the playoffs as the regular season winds down. "It's getting ridiculous at this point," said Lawson, who had 21 points and six assists. "We're losing to teams we should never ... that we shouldn't lose to, especially with the magnitude of what's going on in the season with the playoff run and where we're at. We can't be losing these games." A day after a 105-99 victory over Phoenix, Denver came out fast but finished flat against a Warriors team that had lost 12 of its previous 15 games and is playing without Stephen Curry. This one is bound to stick with the Nuggets for a bit. They jumped out to an early lead behind Aaron Afflalo and had the Warriors on their heels before Golden State rallied to win at home for just the third time since March 1. "Whatever flow we had going in the first, we didn't have for the last two or three quarters," said Afflalo, who finished with 16 points. "We need to string some games together simply for our playoff positioning and hopes. It's almost a must. We kind of have to." David Lee had 17 points and nine rebounds, and the Warriors got a big lift from their reserves to put the dent in Denver's playoff hopes. Brandon Rush added 20 points, Nate Robinson had 14 points and seven assists, and Richard Jefferson scored 10 points to help Golden State, which also outrebounded the Nuggets and scored 58 points in the paint. *Courtesy of www.utsandiego.com
