The Nuggets kept rolling, scoring 35 more points in the third, essentially ending the Clippers’ season for good. Denver won Game 7 120-101 behind six players scoring in double figures.
The Nuggets will now face the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder in the second round. Denver certainly has an uphill battle vs. the Thunder, but they may have the real MVP, and Nikola Jokic could be the difference.
