Andre Iguodala scored a game-high 25 points, adding 12 rebounds and 7 assists in a do-it-all display. He and the Nuggets starters, who all reached double-digits, showed their "Lust for Life," as Denver sustained the series with a win. After the game, Warriors coach Mark Jackson popped off about Stephen Curry getting popped: "They tried to send hit men after Steph." Nonsense. The only Assassin's Creed the Nuggets swear by is the video game. There's nary a ruffian on Denver's roster; the Nuggets are good fellows, not Goodfellas.
Jackson accused Denver of "some dirty plays," yet it was Golden State who was whistled for two flagrant fouls, while none were called on the Nuggets, who committed just two more personal fouls than the Warriors. The coach can comfortably blame the Nuggets for hurting the Warriors locker room, but not their players. After his team lost three straight to form a three-games-to-one hole metaphorically, Sunday a frustrated Kenneth Faried created a hole physically. If Denver climbs out of it, a wall won't be the only thing the Nuggets end up booting.
