The main formula “Clippers” for success was their usual plan, with a little more help from Nicholas Batum. Kavkhi Leonard and James Harden took the lion’s share in the attack so that Norman Powell flashed when they needed a different look, and Avika Zubak controls the paint at both ends of the floor.

In particular, Powell held the clippers in front when Denver threatened to return after he sank by 15 points in the middle of the fourth quarter, as well as some dubious game from the old friend of Russell Westbruck.

Powell finished the game with 24 points of 14 out of 14, while Leonard had 27 points, 10 rebounds and five gears, and Harden had 28 points and eight gears.

The influence of the tooth was felt more in the numbers of Nikol Yokich. Three -time MVP was kept by only five points, two selections and four transmissions in the second half. The nuggets were ahead of the clippers only for one moment with him on the floor, and this team won very few games this season, ahead of the opposition in minutes not a joke.

This difference was most felt in the third quarter, when the jogging 12-0 pushed them twice. The nuggets were reduced, which was leading in just five down, this was not enough to avoid the game 7.

James Harden bounces

Harden entered this series with a retired reputation in the play -off, despite many years of historically effective assessment in the regular season, and the game 5 did nothing to dissuade this chatter. From time to time when a crowd with the singing of a crowd with singing Harden Sucks, the former MVP scored only 11 points of shooting 3 out of 9 with eight selection, five gears and four revolutions.

Game 6 turned out to be another animal.

Harden was noticeably more aggressive during the night, including with a 3-permanent, who put the game almost out of reach for nuggets.

The next will be the game 7, the environment in which Harden’s struggle is even more documented. Despite the fact that this is only the first round, Harden has a chance to expel some demons.

Clippers finally hugs Nick Batum

Not everything worked consistently for Clippers in this series, but one player who has Nick Batum.

A 3 points specialist entered on Thursday with reliable statistics of efficiency and the Plus-23 rating in the series. This season, he scored an average of 4.0 points per career for the game, but his protection and gravity around the perimeter definitely changed Denver.

So it was a small surprise, Batum was on the floor for 34 minutes, in which the clippers overtook the nuggets of 11 points. He did not receive it, but he first began the second half.

Los -angles even more covers Batum, running it over Chris given in the game 7 that the Denver will have to adapt.
