At this point Harden point shaving
Westbrook was the X-factor in this game.
Joker is the real MVP.
Watching this for the 3rd time already 🔥🔥🔥
Clippers played defense and hustled like it was preseason lol
Was he a top 75 all time player?
This game was over quickly! 🔥
5:28 🤣
O
"Better than Wade and Iverson" 😂
This game was rigged from the jump. Too obvious. This clippers team should not have lost to Denver the whole series was probably Fixed .. and I don't care what anyone says it's no way in hell this clippers team should have lost to the nuggets.
Wess good luck on the journey of revenge next okc 🔥
I’m loving this WESTBROOK ERA ON THE NUGGETS ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🔥 my Guy Playing like he just got in the NBA !!!!
WESBRICK is LEQUEEN and GAKERS thrash. LEDIDDY makes everyone better 😂😂😂😂😂
What era was your favorite, The Jordan era, The Kobe era, or the Modern era?
I just love how everyone is going to ignore everything James harden has done this year and the comeback he is having just because of this game.
The Gold Rush is On! Go Nuggets!!
Brodie 💪
Westbeast 😤
James Harden is a Jackass BUM
Harden a no show as usual..1 man Kawhi Lenard against 5 Nuggets
James Harden's mcnuggets shrivelled
Russ wth the pass of the season
Could it be Westbrooks year to get a chip finally?
I’m a Lakers guy, so wasn’t sure who I wanted to win. But I have to give the Clips props for competing hard in the series and took the defending champs to 7 … unlike my Lakers who looked soft.
the sad part about this in Clippers side is they could've won this series in 4 or 5 haha
Bora na
You guys are lucky
What a comeback
Harden master class🔥
Nuggets and Celtics will be a good NBA finals matchup
You see a comment that the team you want to win lost ,so you just stop watching.
James Harden should have known he was the X factor for the Clippers… If Kawahi can play, hes gonna play his best..
This game was silly with how sloppy and careless the passing was even when it mattered at the beginning, but by the third when it was way out of hand it exploded to new levels of chaotic passing. More turnovers than a bakery, more steals than a clepto.
Congratulations Denver Nuggets!!🎉❤
Watched Harden this game on D and thought he was bull fighting…Olay
Rules of winning championships.1.choose 1 direction of selecting players the "full"mindset or the "gnarly" mindset.All those players must be full or the other direction gnarly.2.Keep your franchise players until they retire.3.Maintain your certain round exits when you move up lvls of each round until you reach "no rigged 1"mindset.4.If your head coach can play at 50 difficulty keep him forever.example jj.redick.5 last but not least make sure your rotation and minutes are with your "no connect" mindset at a 99 overall minutes and rotation.You can tell the head coach assigned the best minutes and rotations and trained players perfectly because your gut says theyre playing at 50 difficulty lvl.this is why doncic needs to get to 50 difficulty training wise,hes at 40 trainer lvl right now.rich paul can get him to 50 difficulty.thats all the rules i have if you see the nuggets and celtics winning its because of all these rules they follow.
Harden doing Harden things during game 7s.
And then u can try at the end Piss poor effort
I don’t see them actually winning the finals. Unless it’s just me.
Hopefully GS will survive, they are the last California team standing. Better luck next time Clips though I root for Nuggets but I have high respect for Kawhi
Brown porter jr and Westbrook stepping up for the win of this Nuggets team while clippers core player is frozen😢 though still a good 1st round of the playoffs to end may the nuggets be the champion bcoz they beat my favourite team 😊
OKC vs nuggets is the best matchup
Once again, Kawai fails. He should never have left Toronto. He could’ve helped build a dynasty there.
