Steph Curry called on the Golden State Warriors to find focus and urgency ahead of the NBA playoffs after the reigning champions fell to the Denver Nuggets on Sunday.
Curry and co. lost 112-109 to the Nuggets at the Ball Arena in Denver, with the Western Conference top seeds securing a huge win over Golden State without MVP frontrunner Nikola Jokic. The Serbian - a two-time MVP winner - was absent due to a nagging calf injury, but Michael Porter Jr. and Jamal Murray stepped up with 29 and 26 points respectively.
Ultimately, a win for the Warriors would have been enormous in the incredibly tight race for the postseason. Golden State - who have been woeful on the road this season - led the Nuggets by 10 after the first quarter only to fall apart as Denver clawed their way back.
