Murray scored 43 points to win red eyes! Jokic scored a three-double, and the Clippers dual-core fire was silent and the Nuggets counterattacked

Denver Nuggets defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 131-115 in a stalemate in the series 2-2. With Murray's super god performance and Jokic's all-round output, they defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 131-115 and took the lead in getting the match point.
This game is not only a milestone in Murray's personal career, but also exposes the tactical shortcomings of the Clippers' dual-core under high pressure - when Leonard and Harden fell into a scoring drought at the same time, how much confidence does this luxury battleship have to win the championship? At the beginning of the game, Murray showed his "killer instinct".
Faced with the close guard of the Clippers, he used his speed advantage to continuously attack the inside, and scored 15 points in the first quarter to tear open the opponent's defense line.
The Clippers tried to limit the Nuggets' breakthrough with Zubac's ability to protect the frame, but the frequent leaks of the outside defense made Murray feel like he was in a no-man's realm.
In contrast, the Clippers have dual cores, Leonard's mid-range jump shot has repeatedly made a fuss, and Harden's passing route has been cut off by the Nuggets, and the score difference in the first quarter has quickly widened to double digits. In the
quarter-time competition, Jokic's "court commander" attribute was completely released.
When he held the ball at a high position, the Clippers were forced to double-team, but Jokic always found his open teammate with a ghostly pass. A wonderful pass from behind assisted Gordon to receive an all-dunk, directly igniting the atmosphere at home.
The anxiety of the Clippers' bench is visible to the naked eye - when the team's proud defensive rotation was disintegrated by Jokic's vision, Tyron Lu's on-the-spot adjustment seemed pale and powerless.
The second half became Murray's "personal show". At the end of the third quarter, the Clippers once closed the score difference to 5 points, but Murray hit a difficult three-pointer against the two in the bottom corner, and then stole Harden and launched a fast-attack dunk, completely extinguishing the opponent's counterattack.
Three minutes before the final game, Leonard rarely walked towards the player channel in advance. This detail was captured by the camera and became a microcosm of the Clippers' psychological collapse.
Nuggets are becoming more and more braver the more they fight. The team cooperates with the flow of time to completely break the game into Garbage Time.
Why did the Clippers' dual core fail collectively? Is it the tactics targeted or the mentality is imbalanced? If Murray continues this state, can the Nuggets end the series in one go? Welcome to share your insights in the comment section!
