Nuggets ended the half up by 8 thanks to some Murray magic (to offset a couple of questionable choices) but they need to go back to working from the rim out and not AG jacking shots from behind the arc in the second half. Still, great start & much better want-to than last game. – 11:14 PM

Denver leads Clippers 66-58 at halftime.
Nikola Jokic leads all scorers with 17 points on 7/9 FGs. On triple-double watch with 7 rebounds, 6 assists. Has 2 steals, has made 3.4 FTs. Missed his only 3. Dominating paint and isn’t being challenged much on other end. – 11:13 PM

Halftime in Denver: Nuggets 66, Clippers 58
It’s a game after Clips once trailed by 18. 14 first-half minutes for Terance after he had 18 Friday, when Lue said he should have played Mann more.
Kawhi: team-high 14 pts
Clips shooting 50%/41%/and 5-6 on FTs. – 11:12 PM

#Nuggets up 66-58 at the break after shooting 58%. Denver also with 34 points in the paint. Joker has game-high 17, and Jamal’s got 13. Great energy in the gym after last night’s debacle. – 11:12 PM

Tough 5-point swing for Clippers as Powell misses fast break layup through some contact and Bruce Brown hits corner 3.
Denver up 47-34. The mini battles in this game are glorious:
– Bones vs Jamal
– Russ vs Reggie
– T Mann vs Bruce (this one is much more friendly but STILL) – 10:53 PM

Nearly halfway through the second quarter, your game-high scorer is … Bones Hyland with 10.
He’s taken nine shots in nine minutes, or two more than the rest of the Clippers’ bench unit combined. – 10:53 PM

Interesting development to close the quarter. Jamal’s got his stagger back (I’m sorry).
He was out there with Reggie, Bruce, Thomas and Vlatko. No CB or Jeff (yet) with AG returning to the lineup. Denver ends first up 35-22 … with 10 assists on 63% shooting. – 10:43 PM

Clippers spot Nuggets 18-point lead, then go on 8-0 run with Bones/Powell/T-Mann.
Reggie Jackson blocked Bones in the paint, but it turned into a Kawhi corner 3.

Aaron Gordon is officially available for tonight, I’m told.
He’s missed the last five games with a rib contusion. – 9:09 PM

Asked T Lue about Reggie Jackson, who has observed that Reggie is getting used to his new surroundings (5/17 FGs so far in 37 minutes for Jackson)
Michael Malone added that he trusts Reggie due to his experience. pic.twitter.com/tjGPIxpWR0 – 9:02 PM

Turnovers — Clippers were best in the league at taking care of ball during 10-4 sprint before break.
They allowed 42 points off turnovers Friday night, the most in an NBA game in 4 seasons.

Friday’s on/off splits when Mason Plumlee was LAC’s only available big. It’s the same case tonight with Zubac out. How do Clips make the non-center minutes better?
Lue said point of attack defense to keep DEN out of the paint. “Guys have to be better one-on-one defensively.” pic.twitter.com/G29ZCdoONH – 8:53 PM

Michael Malone called Mason Plumlee, the former Nugget, probably the NBA’s best backup big, heaping praise on him as a big part of Denver’s culture.
Asked by @Law Murray about Bones Hyland’s progression as a Nugget, Malone was much more brief:

Jarred Vanderbilt is kind of a worse version of the entire Russell Westbrook trade package rolled into one player.
KCP’s defense, Kuzma’s rebounding, Trez’s energy and easy buckets.
Obviously he’s not the scorer Kuzma is but they got bits and pieces of all them in one dude. – 7:12 PM

The West is full of individual players that can dominate a playoff series
But the only team that has played consistently well throughout the season and has a player like that are the Nuggets
And it’s hard to take any West team if Boston or Milwaukee come out East as expected – 6:24 PM
