Live broadcast on February 26 In the NBA regular season, the Warriors lost to the Nuggets 103-119 at home. After the game, Warriors rookie TJD was interviewed by reporters.
Speaking about facing Jokic in this game, TJD said: "I was at a disadvantage against him. He is one of the best players in the world. He can score, he can assist. We tried to limit his passing today but he still provided an assist, so it was difficult, but we still had to do it. He can do anything tonight. ”
Speaking about how it felt against the Nuggets, TJD said: "I think they're tenacious. They are a very tenacious team. They won the title last year and most of the players stayed. At the end of the day, I think the problem is with ourselves, and we sometimes get ourselves in trouble. When we take the lead, we have to keep it. The last time we played them, we had a 15 or 16 point lead in the fourth quarter. I think we need to keep the lead and keep extending the lead, to keep defending. ”
