The Nugget’s passing and communication was the real killer here. They were effortlessly passing and the Clippers wore themselves out trying to keep up.

4:34 – AG and Murray just strolled through the defense. Good team basketball.

Poor Chuck sounded a little spicy after this Clippers loss. 😂 I don’t know what his deal is with the Nuggets but he sure pulls for whoever is playing against them. 🤷‍♂️

Every team will look to get Zubac next year because of the way he played against Jokic.

Harden looks drugged out. The Clippers don’t have a vocal leader on the court to bring them together
