The Clippers were eliminated! Including the Lakers, except for the Warriors, all the teams with the older generation as the main players have been eliminated

On May 4, the Nuggets played against the Clippers at home in the NBA playoffs, and this tiebreak battle attracted much attention. This is also the second time the two teams met in the tiebreak battle. Five years ago, in 2020, the Clippers were dragged into the tiebreak by the Nuggets while leading 3-1 and eventually lost the tiebreak battle. In this round of series, although the Clippers did not have a home advantage, they also started with a 2-1 lead, but they were tied by the Nuggets. Although the Nuggets are known as "a professional stakeholder with a tiebreaker". But the Clippers have Leonard. The playoff impression he left on fans over the years has made many fans think that the Clippers can win the tiebreak battle.

Unexpectedly, except for the first quarter, the Clippers took the lead, and the taste of the game became more and more wrong at the beginning of the second quarter. At the end of the half, the Nuggets led by 11 points 58 to 47.

When returning from the second half, the Nuggets scored a 17-0 wave, and the game completely entered garbage time. In the fourth quarter, although the Clippers were still struggling, they were completely lost. The Nuggets continued to expand their lead. Until the end of the game, the Clippers did not recover the suspense of the game. In this game, the Nuggets relied on their full players to play. Six of them scored in double digits, and one Watson scored 9 points. The Clippers also scored 6 players in double digits, and Powell also scored 9 points, but the team's second brother Harden scored more than 30 million yuan and scored only 7 points in the tiebreak battle. He did not dare to attack at critical moments, and it would not be unfair to lose the game.

It is worth mentioning that teams with the older generation born in the 1980s have been eliminated one after another, Durant's Suns did not advance to the playoffs, and James' Lakers were eliminated 4-1 by the Timberwolves.

Harden is still the main player on the Clippers. Although their boss Leonard is not born in the 1980s, he is still 34 years old. In this way, except for the Warriors, all players with the older generation as the main force have been eliminated.

I wonder if the Warriors can win the tiebreak battle with the Rockets, a group of new recruits?
