The Los Angeles Clippers have taken full control of their second-round series with the Denver Nuggets by capitalizing off a terrific start, and cruising to a 96-85 victory in Game 5 to take a 3-1 lead. The Clippers are now just one win away from their first conference finals trip in franchise history.
It took the Clippers only about eight minutes to build a double-digit lead, and they maintained that advantage for much of the game. Kawhi Leonard dominated, finishing with 30 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists for a near triple-double, while Montrezl Harrell came off the bench to chip in 15.
Nikola Jokic did his thing, nearly recording a triple-double of his own with 26 points, 11 rebounds and six assists, but he didn't get any help. Jamal Murray, in particular, had a tough night, going for 18 points on 6 of 15 from the field. As a team, the Nuggets shot 39.7 percent and turned the ball over 14 times.
