Great passing in the first quarter by James Harden. He has six assists, and he should have eight if it weren’t for two missed bunnies by Dunn and Zubac. Clippers are up 26-21.
Derrick Jones Jr. gets his first start of the series over Kris Dunn. This lineup worked well in the regular season. It had a net rating of 21.8 in 193 minutes compared to 10.8 in 326 minutes for the version with Dunn. Also saw an uptick in true shooting % (+4.9), rebound % (+6.7) and pace (+1.89).
This Nuggets-Clippers series has really lived up to the hype. Four of the six games have been decided by two possessions or less. That’s the same amount as the West’s other three first-round series combined. Time to find out who OKC will play in the second round.
