✅ NUGGETS CLIPPERS GAME 5,✅ CELTICS RAPTORS ✅LIVE NBA GAME 7 Play-By-Play

09-12-2020, FRI 5pm -CLIPPERS Losing to these talented Nuggets is no cause for panic on its face; but giving up 38 points in the fourth quarter when it appeared you were a veteran team handling its business now looks like a squad on cruise control. "We definitely lost our discipline,” Clippers coach Doc Rivers said. “There is no doubt about that.” Rivers wore that forlorn look on his face in the final minute, after would’ve-been draft pick Michael Porter Jr. saved face with some heavy and tough defensive plays that didn’t seem likely given how the series played out. It’s not the curse of Donald Sterling or V. Stiviano, nothing nefarious from their past holding them back. And it’s likely it won’t haunt them in this series, as smart money says they’ll put them away in Game 6, as Leonard said, the Clippers “can learn a lesson” from this collapse. But it’s not about getting out of the second round or even making it to the conference finals. The Clippers are somehow on the seesaw from shutting up all their critics who believed their laissez-faire approach to the regular season would bite them later or validating those who believed good habits are developed during the regular season and exercised in the playoffs. CLIPPERS The defending-champion Raptors staved off elimination on Wednesday with a thrilling 125-122 double-overtime victory in Game 6. Toronto lost the first two games of this series but has rallied to win three of the last four. The Raptors are just the third team in NBA history to force a Game 7 with a multi-OT win, joining the 1974 Bucks and 2009 Bulls. The Bucks and Bulls, however, went on to lose Game 7 -- ironically enough -- to Boston. Toronto owns an all-time record of 3-2 in Game 7s (won 3 straight). On the other hand, the Celtics are 23-9 all-time in Game 7s (most wins in NBA history) and Brad Stevens owns a record of 2-1 in Game 7 scenarios since coming to Boston. The Celtics are seeking their third conference finals appearance in the past four seasons. Follow along below with live analysis of all the action from Orlando.
