The lead ballooned to as much as 18 before Portland reeled it in to 12 at the half. At one point, the Warriors held a 39-point edge before the final period. This was compounded by the foul trouble of Jusuf Nurkic, who picked up five personals in 12 minutes. It’s not the first time you’ve heard this—and only a miracle would make it the last—but defense was a problem. The Warriors sat their starters, but still decimated the Damian Lillard-less squad.
