Surrender early in the final quarter! The Clippers tiebreak 3: 4 defeated without fighting spirit, and received three bad news when losing

On May 4, the first group of the Western Conference in the first round of the NBA playoffs was tied for the Clippers at home. This series has experienced controversial dunks and the final hit, the main player's downturn and rebound, and finally came to the tiebreak, and the winner will face the Thunder.

The beginning of this game was that Murray and Jokic both played at home, but the role players stood up to help the team and showed their determination. On the other hand, the Clippers seemed very helpless when facing the changes in their opponents, and just one Westbrook disrupted the entire defensive deployment. In the third quarter, the Clippers were directly beaten by the Nuggets 4:24. In this process, only Xiaoka chose to save himself but encountered double-teams. Another core member, Harden, scored 0 points in a single quarter, and was in a downturn again without any surprise. In the end, with 8 minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Nuggets had already led by 30 points. Tyron Lue took the main force early and surrendered, finally losing 101:120. This loss gave the Clippers three bad news:

First, they encountered a big reversal from the Nuggets while leading 2:1. Although Gordon's dunk was an accident, the Clippers, which were lagging behind, finally paid the price of getting out of the game.

Second, Harden once again proved that he could not fight a tough battle in a key battle. Although he scored 28 points in the last game, he could not make up for his 11 points in the Battle of Tianwang Mountain and his 7 points today. When the team needed him the most, Harden always disappeared, which confused his teammates and despaired the management. How to build a team and make a comeback next is a problem.

3: If you are eliminated in this way, the fans of the Clippers and Harden will be greatly reduced. Faced with adversity, all the Clippers players are gods. Tyron Lou called a timeout early in the third quarter to no avail. In terms of fighting spirit, the Clippers have already hurt the hearts of fans.

In the end, the Clippers ended the tiebreak with a defeat. It seemed very unexpected, but after watching the game, there was nothing to say. Even though the Nuggets had luck and fluctuations in this series, the Clippers' performance was indeed not worthy of going further.
