Nuggets Crush Clipper in game 7, Setup Series vs. Thunder

Denver-Nikola Jokic received a lot of help from his teammates, and the Denver Nuggets were not about to build a big lead and ran past the La Clipper in a 120-101 game 7 on Saturday evening.

The Nuggets No. 4, which were cited with up to 35 points, appeared to take over the No. 1-Seed-Oklahoma City Thunder, who swept Memphis in the first round and had a week free. The teams shared their season series 2-2, with both teams winning one on the way.

The Clipper's season came to a standstill after entering the playoffs as the hottest team in the league after winning 18 out of 21.

Jokic had 16 points, 10 rebounds and 8 assists. Aaron Gordon led Denver with 22 points, Christian Braun had 21, Jamal Murray and Russell Westbrook each achieved 16 and Michael Porter Jr. 15.

Kawhi Leonard led Los Angeles with 22 points, but James Harden scored only 7 points on 2 von-8 shootings and Ivica Zubac had his calmest game in the series with 10 points.

For the whole season over the Nuggets, the fiasco in round 2 last year was in round 2, when in the second half she blew a lead of 20 points ahead of the Minnesota Timberwolves when it looked as if they were prepared to defend the first NBA championship of the franchise.

And after a 22-point advantage of the fourth quarter was abolished in the game 4 of this series in the fourth quarter-to be saved by the first Summers trottel in the NBA Playoff story, with the kind permission of Gordon-the Nuggets and the Ballarena amount was only more energetic than anxious than the leaders grew again and again.

The nuggets opened it with 17: 0 in the third quarter after Leonard started the second half with a 3 pointer to lower the deficit from LA to 58: 50.

Los Angeles led after a quarter 26-21, but the Clipper were exceeded in the second and third quarter with 72: 40 to drive to the fourth quarter.

After Jokic picked up his third, fourth and fifth fouls in third place in third place over a period of 48 seconds, he went to the bench and watched his team continued to roll. He was sitting the whole fourth quarter.

The Nuggets celebrated at the beginning of the fourth quarter, when Westbrook willingly, a technical time to hang up on the edge and swinging after his theft and Dunk set up 107-76 back and forth.

And Denver interim coach David Adelman emphasized his bank with a lead of 111-81 with 5:23. But the Clippers made a 7-0 run and Adelman sent his starters back in the four-minute brand.

The Clippers finally cut a 35-point deficit in the teenagers, but the leadership of Denver was too great to change. The 19-point victory of the Nuggets was her biggest in a game 7 in the playoff story of the franchise.

With the kind permission of the team owner Steve Ballmer, more than 100 Clipper fans were flown to Denver and gathered behind one of the baskets to deliver additional noise. It is an expansion of “The Wall”, a section for the group of superfans who packs the intuit dome – also behind a basket – for Clipper's games in Los Angeles.

The Nuggets had lost four of their previous five final games since he won the only NBA championship in the franchise two years ago. The Clippers were also the victims when Denver won a game 7 last time that came in the conference semi-final in the Florida bubble when the Nuggets crossed a 3-1 series deficit.
