The thrilling Western Conference first-round series between the Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Clippers reaches its conclusion Saturday with one last game to decide which team advances to face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the conference semifinals beginning next week. The Clippers forced Game 7 by beating the Nuggets, 111-106, in Thursday’s Game 6 in Los Angeles.
The oddsmaker favor the Nuggets slightly with Saturday’s matchup scheduled to be played in Denver, but this whole series has been tight. Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, as well as Kawhi Leonard and James Harden, have each proven capable of putting together big performances thus far. Experts are predicting more of the same with the season on the line for both teams now.
