The series between the Clippers and the Nuggets was over, and this round of series was quite lively, with both sides playing until tiebreak. In fact, this is something everyone expected, after all, the strength gap between the two teams is not big. But there will only be one team in competitive sports to advance, which is also a pity, because the winner will be decided. After the first round of the ship digging, there is no better, there is a better 4 winners and 2 losers, Harden's window period is closed.

Winner one, Nuggets. The Nuggets are the winner of this round of competition, so they are naturally the biggest winner. Although the Nuggets series was difficult, overall, they performed better than the Clippers on the tactical level. In fact, this is the case in the series. When you have tactical advantages, you will naturally win. In the next round, the Nuggets will face the Thunder, and they will be different opponents. At that time, the Nuggets will change their strategy and see what cards they can play.

Winner 2, Westbrook. Westbrook performed well overall in this round of series, which can be said to have directly raised the reputation, which is very important to Westbrook. Not to mention other games, we just talk about tiebreakers. Westbrook scored 16 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists and 5 steals alone, which can be said to be quite comprehensive. If the Nuggets want to gain an advantage in the next round, then Westbrook will continue to perform like this and play steadily. This is undoubtedly a matter of no doubt.

Winner three, Leonard. Although the Clippers were eliminated, for Leonard, this round of series also made him prove again. We all know that Leonard still has super strength, but there are too many injuries. Of course, with Leonard's health this year, the team still has no breakthroughs. If we wait for the next year, there will be many unpredictable results. But there is no need to worry about Leonard, he is still a super player.

Winner Four, Zubac. Zubac actually gained a lot in this round of series. In the large number of matches with Jokic, it can also offset some of Jokic's functions. What we need to know is that Zubac has grown into the first inside line of the league step by step, which is really a surprise. After experiencing such a round of playoffs, Zubac will grow even greater next season, after all, Zubac has truly entered its peak period.

Loser, Harden. Harden is a complete loser. Not only did he lose this round of the series, but his championship window was also completely closed. Why do you say so? In fact, according to the momentum of the Clippers at the end of the regular season this season, it still gave many hope. Now with the first round of elimination, the lineup will grow by one year later, and there is little chance of winning the championship. It can only be said that Harden missed the championship, and he is really an insulator.

Loser 2, Clippers. The Clippers lost this round of the series. In fact, they were not without a chance, but they were strategically passive during the entire series. The Clippers had an advantage in the early stage of the series, but they did not seize the opportunity themselves. I can only say that time is life, but it will be like this to play in this series. I don’t know if the Clippers will operate during this offseason, and whether they can create a stable three-pointer.

In general, it is a pity for anyone to lose in this round of series, and they met too early. Let’s see if the Nuggets will continue to rush next, and the Clippers have entered the offseason and will have corresponding operations.
