The Los Angeles Clippers will host the Denver Nuggets in Game 4 of the first-round playoff series on Saturday to extend their winning run. The Clippers routed the Nuggets 117-83 in first home matchup of the series and took a 2-1 lead in the series.

It was a one-way traffic for the Clippers, who exposed the Nuggets’ reliability over Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. The three-time MVP was lecturing the squad in Game 3 with full frustration. Denver went 7-for-24 in the 3-point range and struggled in offensive transition. Los Angeles countered Jokic in smart way and Nuggets’ bench couldn’t hold the pressure.
