Nuggets, Clippers hit with 6 techs after Game 4 skirmish Twice in the last seven seasons, the Nuggets were tied 2-2, won Game 5 but went on to lose Game 7 at home. It happened against Portland in 2019 and versus Minnesota last season.

The Denver Nuggets seemed just about dead after getting blown out in Game 3 against the Los Angeles Clippers before seeing a 22-point lead disappear in the fourth quarter of Game 4. The starters were gassed and the Clippers had all the momentum heading into a potential overtime period.
