After a couple of exciting games in the Mile High City, the opening-round series between the Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Clippers heads to Hollywood, with both sides looking to take advantage on Thursday night.
The Nuggets seemed like they were well on their way to snagging a commanding two-game series lead on Monday night. However, despite a strong first quarter, Kawhi Leonard powered the Clippers in the latter stages of the game, leading to Los Angeles evening the series with a hard-fought 105-102 win.
