The Nuggets looked slow starting about the middle of the third quarter, and this was one of the first times that the Clippers have been able to survive going small. So they even found a way to get Zubac off the court and give him some rest. I mean, you saw how fresh he looked. Came in with like four minutes left in the fourth quarter. That's a luxury. for the Clippers.
Usually they don't have the defense without him as the anchor. I think that the Clippers might have figured some stuff out rotation-wise in this game. It takes a while before you can figure those things out, but six games is better than going home after game six.

They make so many shots, right? Like they have three guys that are advanced shot makers. Norm Powell kind of gets lost in this, but it does seem like any time they need a big shot, Norm has got to do it. He also does a good job of attacking closeouts, getting to the basket, putting pressure on the rim. I would say that this was a textbook example of what they want their offense to be.

James Harden initiate, hopefully get into the pick and roll, drive, create a lane, you know, make the pass, kick it around. And then if you have to, Kawhi is able to catch the ball on the on the correct. Get a clear out in isolation. And I mean, look, the mid range is automatic for him. And we see this in fourth quarter after fourth quarter. When it comes time, they need a basket.

They need a tough shot. Give it to Kawhi. He's going to get the shot over anybody. I mean, he had a shot over Jokic in the fourth. And that's tough because the guy's 7'2". It just doesn't matter for Kawhi. So I think that the big key for Game 6, can James Harden keep these guys in the blender? Can Norm Powell make shots like he did? Or excuse me, for Game 7, yeah.

Can Norm Powell continue to make shots? And then is everybody going to allow Kawhi to continue to be Kawhi? The Clippers, if they can just do what they did in Game 6, which is easier said than done, I mean, I think that they should be looking pretty good for Game 7. Now, the difference is, Nikola Jokic is like the most clutch guy in the league, and when it comes to time to get a bucket...

That's the guy I'm choosing no matter the award. So if the game is close in game seven and you're playing in Denver, you've got his home crowd there. There's no chance in a close game. I'm going against Jokic. So I don't know. I'm kind of pumped for this game seven. I don't know if you can tell. I don't come to a lot of games. And I had to come to this one.

We need it, though, Zena. We need a good seven game series. You want to make a prediction?
