NBA Sunday Night
LA Clippers vs Denver Nuggets
Game 6
Will one of the big favorites close his qualification to the Conference Finals or will the young hopeful extend the series? The crossover between Clippers and Nuggets favors the former, although the feelings that Doc Rivers' team gives off are far from satisfactory.
This meeting is an important test for the Clippers. If they lose, they would be in the position of playing a Match 7, a situation that any team prefers to avoid at all costs (unless you are losing, of course). The Los Angeles Lakers are already in the West Finals waiting for the final and the neighbors want to arrive as soon as possible.
Kawhi Leonard's level is stratospheric, but more is missing. The Clippers defense shines less than a few months ago and disconnections increase. Neither do the roles of Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell, two of the four legs of the team with Kawhi and Paul George, stand out. They need to suffocate from defense.
