The first two games went down to the wire with the Nuggets taking Game 1 in overtime and the Clippers pulling out Game 2 in a thriller to send the series back to Los Angeles tied at 1-1. Game 3 was a far more lopsided affair as the Clippers cruised to a 117-83 victory to take a 2-1 series lead.

Denver used a balanced scoring attack to throttle LA, which couldn't get anything going in Game 7. The Nuggets and Thunder meet Monday in Game 1.

The Nuggets used a 72-40 spurt over the second and third quarters to take control of the game and this tight series that saw each team win on the other’s home court.
