In the end, the Nuggets eliminated the Clippers 4-3 and advanced to the Western Conference semi-finals. They will have a second round of showdown with the Thunder. After the game, Nuggets defender Jamal Murray was interviewed by the team reporter and publicly praised his teammate Westbrook excitedly: "
Tonight we must cheer for Westbrook. He played aggressiveness and dominance on both ends of the offense and defense. He used his passion and energy to infect everyone in the team. This is the easiest and most comfortable victory in this round of series. We have ended the game in the first three quarters. It is obvious that Westbrook is the savior of the entire series. Tonight he used his excellence to teach his old team the Clippers a lesson!"
" We have always believed that we would complete the promotion at our home court, because the Nuggets are a team that is truly prepared to sprint for the championship. We locked Harden with iron-blooded defense, allowing him to play a career shameful night. This is the Nuggets' tenacity in the playoffs. Let us continue to look forward to the showdown with the Thunder!"
Westbrook played for 27 minutes and 21 seconds in this game, shooting 5 of 9 shots, 2 of 4 of 3-pointers, and 4 of 6 free throws. He scored 16 points + 5 rebounds + 5 assists + 5 steals, and performed very domineeringly on both ends of the offense and defense.
Harden played 35 minutes and 27 seconds in the whole game, made 2 of 8 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, and 2 of 2 free throws. He fell into a downturn again, scoring only 7 points + 5 rebounds + 13 assists + 2 steals + 1 block, and the plus and negative value on the field was -29, and was once again nailed to the pillar of shame. Harden's performance today not only hurts himself, but also makes all fans and friends who like him sad.
