The Los Angeles Clippers still believe in a team led by the tandem of James Harden and Kawhi Leonard. Following the Clippers first-round series loss to the Denver Nuggets, Clippers president Lawrence Frank expressed that "I definitely believe in those two," about Harden and Leonard as the team's leaders on a potential championship team.

The Clippers won Game 2 at Ball Arena 105-102, and twice in the Nikola Jokic era the Nuggets have succumbed in a Game 7 at home, against Portland in 2019 and against Minnesota last year when Denver blew a 20-point second-half lead.

The Los Angeles Clippers were underwhelming in the win-or-go-home contest on Saturday against the Denver Nuggets.
