In a sadly familiar performance, the LA Clippers blew another big halftime lead against the Nuggets, losing 111-98
It happened again. The LA Clippers came out firing on all cylinders early, leading by as many as 19 points and taking a 16 point lead into the half. Then, the tire fire started. After scoring 63 points in the first half, they could only manage 35 points in the whole second half, while giving up 64 to the Nuggets.
If you’re one of the Clippers fans bemoaning our rotations in Game 5, in which Montrezl Harrell saw a lot of negative minutes in a series which does not play to his strengths, this game was torture for you.
