A lot of people enjoyed the Clippers blowing a 3-1 lead to the Nuggets last night, a 104-89 meltdown that included a fourth quarter in which neither Paul George nor Kawhi Leonard scored a single point.
Damian Lillard set a franchise record with 61 points, including a career-best 11 3-pointers, and the short-handed Portland Trail Blazers outlasted the equally depleted Golden State Warriors 129-124 in overtime Monday night.
Damian Lillard hasn’t looked like himself for much of the Western Conference Finals. That might have something to do with the fact that he’s playing with a separated rib, according to multiple reports.
