After Action Report
The Nuggets buried the Clippers 129-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nuggets cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Nuggets; the Nuggets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Clippers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Clippers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
