2025 NBA PLAYOFFS West First Round: #4 Denver Nuggets vs #5 LA Clippers (Series tied 2-2)

Post #61 » by **cupcakesnake** » Fri Apr 25, 2025 2:21 am

Underrated thing about Gordon is that he isn't a total zero off the dribble. If he has to create out of a broken play, he's not half bad with his handles and his pull up.

How are they leaving Kawhi wide open from 3?

Or maybe the world can't afford to see another Clippers collapse?

Are the nuggets going to shoot 100%?

Nuggets offense looks good so far. Kris Dunn with 2 threes.

Wow. Nuggets like 9/11 with 4 threes

Nuggets on fire offensively but look terrible on D. To bad Clippers can't capitalize

Good sign for the Nuggets (the Dunn part).

8/9 vs 4/10 from the field, sheesh.

It's always hard to believe when someone's leveled up their jumper without having a large sample but Gordon's looks super comfortable right now.

Jamal has been bad in the zone so far. Otherwise it has been pretty good but basically every open shot for the clippers so far has been a Jamal miscue.

I don’t understand why the Clips are giving up uncontested 3s

He’s actually over 40% from three for over a year now

Denver's offense is on point but they need to pick up their perimeter defense

Good movement by Denver, Van Gundy will adjust it well

I mean neither the Murray or first Gordon 3 were uncontested. They were face up/off the dribble 3s with a defender nearby.

Who wins?
