Westbrook fuels Nuggets' comeback to edge Clippers 112-110 in OT in teams' NBA playoff opener

Denver (AP)-Russell Westprook, whose late folly, attached to Denver Nags, as they moved in the amazing chapter of coach Michael Malon and the Granches Calvin Beth on the eve of the qualifiers, closed against his former team at the time of the crisis on Saturday.

“This is what it is,” said Nicolas Gokic.

“I just know that (the incoming) is playing”, from being in the previous two seasons.

Westbroook had a lot to do with 20 huge transformations in Los Angeles, including seven unfamiliar from Kawahi Leonard.

“Ross is Ross,” said temporary coach David Adeleman after he improved to 4-0. “Defense, it’s incredible at all. He was playing free often there. I thought many of the reasons why the transformations had occurred, even if he had no compulsion, (was) the way he was wandering and affecting the game.

“Then the attack … attacked,” said Adelan. “Perhaps we could take it out and implement it. But this is what Ross does. I don’t think he will change after 17 years. If he sees someone in front of him 1-un-1, he will attack. Then he did it enormous 3.”

Jokic scored 29 points and ended a single three -fold recovery. Aaron Gordon added 25 points and Murray 21, while nuggets overcame a 15 -point deficit in the first half to offer the hottest team that enters the qualifiers.

Cleibers, ranked 5, was the first 5 since March 30 in Cleveland. She rolled in the qualifiers after she won 18 out of 21, including the last eight.

“If you turn 20 times against the team that is ranked first in the offensive transition, the game will lose,” he regretted the Cleibers coach.

Harden Clippers led with 32 points. Leonard 22 and Ivica Zubac added 21.

Leonard ignored the loss, saying that the team’s mood was “still good. Just game 1. You know, Denver is good, especially at home. He still has the game 2.”

This is Monday night in Ball Arena.

Adeleman said that the late return key was in fact when Denver closed the second quarter in the range 13-2 to get 53-49 at the end of the first half.

Adeleman said: “It seemed to be one of those games in which you wander slowly,” Adeleman said.

Westprick was driving the road, as he appeared greatly despite the loss of 12 out of 17 rounds in general.

“Many people focus on losing a lot of shots,” Westprick said. “But in the qualifiers, all you have to do is just win the game. I don’t give the number of shots you miss.

And do so.
