GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
Denver Nuggets (39-36)
VS
Los Angeles Clippers (37-37)
When: Saturday April 7th, 10:30pm
Where: Staples Center, LA
Last Time They Met: LA @ Denver, Denver win 103-88. Corey Maggette had 22 points, 12 rebounds, 2 steals. Carmelo Anthony had 33 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals. Camby had 6 blocks. Reggie Evans had 14 rebounds. JR had 23 points.
Line-ups:
 
 
 
 
 
Key Players:
Elton Brand
Carmelo Anthony
Elton Brand has been the dominant force in the Clippers battle to make the final spots in the playoffs. Carmelo was the scoring force in the last quarter against the Mavericks, and grabbed the game winning steal when Dirk tried to pass the ball to Stackhouse in the corner.
Quote:
The Denver Nuggets could give themselves a big push toward their fourth consecutive playoff appearance when they visit the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday.
Denver (39-36) has a 1 1/2 game lead over the Clippers (37-37) for the seventh spot in the Western Conference standings, and trail the sixth-place Los Angeles Lakers by just one-half game. All three teams are trying to fend off the Golden State Warriors, who are in ninth place - one game back of the Clippers.
The Nuggets have seven games left in the regular season while the Clippers have eight. The Lakers and Warriors each have six contests remaining.
Denver comes into Saturday's game having won four straight, including a 75-71 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Friday. The Nuggets shot a dismal 35.5 percent from the field and the 75 points were a season low, but Carmelo Anthony stole Dirk Nowitzki's pass and hit two free throws with nine seconds left to seal the win.
|
Key Notes: If Denver win this match, they will take the 6th spot in the playoff race from the LA Lakers.

Re: GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
Very important game... Denver wins this, and they're basically in the playoffs.

Re: GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
Camby needs to get in there and grab some rebounds, the Clippers nearly have more offensive rebounds that the total amount of our rebounds, and we need to cut down on our turnovers big time, giving them too many oppurtunities. The Clippers already have 5 steals.

Re: GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
End of the 1st quarter, not a good end to the term. Denver down by 5.
Carmelo has 6 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist, 1 block.
Camby has 2 points, 1 rebound, 3 assists, 1 steal.
AI has 9 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist.
Blake has 5 points, 2 assists.
We need to pick up our game, and cut down on the turnovers. We are also getting dominated in the rebounds.

Re: GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
The Clippers are getting way too many second chance oppurtunities by getting the offensive rebounds, getting quite annoying. We really need to wake up, the Clippers are up by 13 now, on a 8-0 run.

Re: GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
That and1 by Melo was just nasty.
The Nuggets are just playing very sloppy right now maybe fatigue from the Dallas game? But this is far from over, what they need to do is start cutting into that lead and get it with in like 6 by the half and it will be a new ball game

Re: GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
We have finally scored in the second quarter, Carmelo made the running jumper and got the contact. But missed the free throw.

Re: GT: Denver Nuggets @ Los Angeles Clippers
WE NEED TO GET THE DEFENSIVE REBOUNDS, I DONT KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE TO SAY IT. We are getting absolutely dominated in the rebounds, we need to get the boards if we want to win.
