The Clippers were eliminated by the Nuggets 3-4, and the performance of two of them was very important, one was the abnormal Harden and the other was the extraordinary Westbrook. According to statistics, Westbrook made a total of 13 of 31 three-pointers in this round of the series, with a three-point shooting percentage of 41.9%. Who said Westbrook would not shoot with such a performance? What's more interesting is that after the Clippers and Nuggets' match, Westbrook sneered Harden in the locker room. In fact, it’s no wonder that others are blamed for being unsuccessful.

Today's tiebreak battle, Westbrook played for 27 minutes, contributing 16 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 steals, making 5 of 9 shots in the game, and 2 of 4 three-pointers. After the game, the Clippers' reporter Farbod Esnaashari updated the social media, praising Westbrook's performance: "Westbrook is simply the savior of the Nuggets' playoffs! He deserves all the praises from the world - he turned the tide when he was about to lose in the first game, and played a huge role in every game he played!"

Although the reporter's words were a bit exaggerated, Westbrook, as the strongest firepower point on the bench, did help the team advance smoothly, which is an indisputable fact. It is an indisputable fact that Harden, as the team's main point guard, has indeed failed again. It is reported that Westbrook shouted when he ran back to the Nuggets locker room: "They chose the wrong person, didn't they?" This sentence obviously connoted Harden. The Clippers played very well two years ago. After a big deal, Westbrook went to play as a substitute for Harden. Last season, Westbrook left the Clippers, and it turned out that the Clippers had indeed chosen the wrong person. Before Harden came, the Clippers were the top team in the playoffs. When Harden came, he was a middle and upper-level team in the regular season. Harden did not have that kind of top confrontation level. After so many years, he has been proven countless times.

The key is to be in terms of personal fighting spirit, Westbrook really wants to win, and Harden is afraid of losing. These are two different types of players. Looking forward to the series against the Thunder, Westbrook can continue to be in good shape. After all, eliminating the Clippers is not really worth pride.
