This is what the Clippers get for acting like the most arrogant pricks on the planet. Ball don’t lie. I thought they would close in 7 at the worst but now I’m not so sure. Nuggets deserve all the confidence. Kawhi and PG are no leaders. Total utter meltdowns. You love to see it

The Clippers have blown 16- and 19-point second half leads in their last 2 games. Why? The second half play of Jokić and Murray, who accounted for nearly as many points (82) as the Clippers (84) in their last 2 second halves. @ESPNStatsInfo

The biggest difference I’m seeing is the Clippers 2nd unit just isn’t the dominant group it was in the regular season. Lou hasn’t been very good and Harrell didn’t have much of an impact at all.
Perhaps the clippers are just cursed for having the audacity to stay in the Lakers market? Before it was always CP3 or Blake getting hurt and now with a healthy squad they are still struggling to close the Nuggets out.
