The Nuggets won another thriller in Game 4 on Aaron Gordon&rsquo;s game-winner to tie the series. Can the stacked Clippers take back the series lead against the Nuggets? Read through the preview, total predictions, and player props here.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to Watch Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Clippers<\/strong><\/h2><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Time<\/strong>: 8:00 AM (MT)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Venue<\/strong>: Ball Arena (Denver, Colorado)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Where to watch<\/strong>: This game can be viewed on the NBA League Pass.<\/li>\n<\/ul><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Clippers Game 5 Preview&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2><p><strong>The most intriguing series<\/strong><\/p><p>Game 4 perfectly encapsulates the series. As Nikola Jokic threw a prayer at the buzzer-beater and missed, Nuggets&rsquo; athletic forward Aaron Gordon sneaked in a put-back from a tough angle. However, the ball left his hands juuust at the 0.0 mark. The thinnest of margins indeed.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The Nuggets did a fantastic job of recovering from a 34-point loss. The Nuggets held a slim 2-point lead by the end of the first half. However, the next two quarters saw big runs<\/p><p>Denver took a big-time 20-point lead at the end of the third quarter. But the Clippers made a fierce rally. It was a brilliant team effort encapsulated by a Norman Powell three-pointer that cut the lead to one and a Bogdan Bogdanovic jumper that gave them a lead with 1:11 left.<\/p><p>Jokic and Zubac traded buckets to tie the game. It paved the way for the magical moment by Gordon. Jokic led all scorers with 36 points and also stacked a game-high 21 rebounds. This phenomenal performance came at the most crucial time when the Nuggets were decimated at Game 3 because of their offensive issues.<\/p><p>At any rate, the game was as close as it gets. Both teams made 10 triples and 11 free throws. The Nuggets had one more made field goal with 40, which was the difference in the end. Phew, what a series!<\/p><p><strong>Nuggets Expected Starting Lineup<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>PG:<\/strong> Jamal Murray | <strong>SG: <\/strong>Christian Braun |<strong> <\/strong><strong>&nbsp;SF:<\/strong> Michael Porter Jr. | <strong>PF: <\/strong>Aaron Gordon<strong> | C: <\/strong>Nikola Jokic<\/p><p><strong>Key bench players: PG: <\/strong>Russell Westbrook.<\/p><p><strong>Injuries\/Updates: <\/strong>Russell Westbrook is a Game-Time Decision.<\/p><p><strong>Clippers Expected Starting Lineup<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>PG:<\/strong> James Harden | <strong>SG: <\/strong>Kris Dunn | <strong>SF<\/strong>: Kawhi Leonard | <strong>SF<\/strong>: Norman Powell | <strong>C<\/strong>: Ivica Zubac<\/p><p><strong>Key bench players: SF:<\/strong> Derrick Jones Jr, <strong>PF: <\/strong>Nicolas Batum<strong>, SG: <\/strong>Bogdan Bogdanovic<strong>, PG: <\/strong>Ben Simmons.<\/p><p><strong>Injuries\/Updates: <\/strong>Nothing significant to report<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Clippers Total Over\/Under Prediction<\/strong>&ndash; NBA Best Bets<\/h2><p>Three of the four games have been in the 200-207 points range thus far. Meanwhile, only one battle has yielded 210+ points (222 in Game 1 due to Overtime).<\/p><p> Thus, it has been a hard-fought battle. The Clippers have touched the 110+ points mark once outside of the OT game, while the Nuggets are yet to do it apart from the OT situation. But Jokic has found his offensive rhythm in full flow and a bunch of their role players are due a big game. Thus, I see the Nuggets getting past at least 105 here.&nbsp;<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list has-medium-font-size\">\n<li><strong>Total: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'><strong>O 209.5 for +100 at BetMGM<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Nuggets: Points&nbsp; <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-BetMGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'><strong>Over 104.5 for -102&nbsp; at BetMGM<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Clippers Player Props Predictions- NBA Betting Picks<\/strong><\/h2><p><strong>Nikola Jokic to dish over 9.5 assists: <\/strong>The Joker dished the series-low 8 assists as he took the series-high 25 shots.

I am currently an NBA Predictions Writer on The Playoffs. I enjoy this job because it helps keep me in the loop about the game I love while fulfilling the pleasure I derive from stats.

I hope you enjoy reading my pieces as much as Dennis Rodman loved rebounding the basketball!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/shubham-singh-498421175\/"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/shubham-singh\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45495"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=45495"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45495\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":45504,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/45495\/revisions\/45504"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/45500"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=45495"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=45495"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=45495"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
