INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- James Harden and Denver's Christian Braun tangled in the final seconds before halftime, triggering a skirmish that resulted in six technical fouls between the LA Clippers and the Nuggets in Game 4 on Saturday.
Harden was dribbling while closely defended by Braun with 6.6 seconds remaining. Harden got fouled and exchanged words with Braun at midcourt. Denver's Nikola Jokic approached them and jawed at Harden, who took a poke at Aaron Gordon with a referee in the middle.
Ivica Zubac of the Clippers tried to stop Gordon, who raced around him toward Harden as several players tangled while the referees tried to break it up.
