If you can't watch or listen to the live game, follow this live blog of the game with scoring updates, commentary, stats and a play-by-play as tip off is a little after 8 p.m. ET.
The Nuggets are in trouble. After going 38-3 at home during the regular season, the Warriors won Game 2 beating the Nuggets for only the fourth time at home. That is what you call defying odds. The Warriors seem unfazed by the Nuggets' home record as they actually almost won Game 1 as well. They almost mounted a comeback, but Andre Miller got the Nuggets over the hump.
In Game 2, to tie the series, the Warriors did an incredible job shooting the ball. They played fast paced basketball, sort of how the Nuggets usually run their offense, and were getting high percentage looks. Not only where they getting close to the basket, but they were hitting shots from the perimeter all night long. The analysis was that they would cool off at some point, however, this never happened.
Led by Stephen Curry, the Warriors not only won Game 2 on the road, but they defeated the Nuggets at home and now have a 3-1 advantage in the series. Curry has simply made a name for himself in the 2013 playoffs. People knew he was talented, but now he's doing it in front of the nation as everybody has their eyes glued on the 2013 NBA Playoffs.
The Nuggets have to win Tuesday's Game 5 if they expect to advance further into the playoffs. The San Antonio Spurs are awaiting an opponent and the Nuggets play fast pace basketball, which could through the Spurs off. With the Oklahoma City Thunder missing their second best player, who knows what could happen in the Western Conference now.
