On May 2, the NBA playoffs continued. The highly-watched series between the Nuggets and the Clippers has come to Game 6 today, which is also the life-and-death battle between the Clippers. Previously, the Nuggets won the battle of Tianwang Mountain and had already taken a 3-2 lead in the series. If the Clippers cannot win today, they will be out and go home to fish. In the end, after a fierce competition in four quarters, the Clippers defeated the Nuggets 111-105, and the total score tied 3-3.

In this game, the Clippers' winning heroes were naturally the two major stars Leonard and Harden. Today, Harden and Kat made efforts at the same time. Harden played 47 minutes, scoring 28 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, Kat made 10 rebounds in 27. In addition, the role players of the Clippers also stood up, including Zubac, who successfully restricted Jokic, and Powell, who was hot and repeatedly hit key goals. Everyone in the Clippers can contribute to this victory.

However, today we must not ignore the contribution of veteran Batum on the Clippers bench. In this game, Clippers veteran Batum performed extremely well, trying his best on both offense and defense, and contributed 2 three-pointers stably on the offense. He achieved excellent results in single defense and backup defense on the defensive end. He even blocked blocks in a critical moment in the final quarter, completely killing the opponent's hope of counterattack. He played in 34 minutes in the game, made 2 of 5 three-pointers and 5 shots, scored 6 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 3 blocks, plus or negative value +11.

Batum was ordered today and was pushed to the starting position by head coach Tyron Lu in the second half. Because Dunn did not shoot outside, he was constantly empty by the Nuggets in the first half and could not make three-pointers to respond and punish. Tyron Lu made his heart a fuss, making the 37-year-old Batum the starter in the second half and directly DNP Dunn. This array change has achieved very good results. The Clippers were completely alive in the second half, and they scored 10 points in a single quarter, laying the foundation for victory.

In this regard, first of all, we must say that Coach Lu finally boldly changed the formation and no longer stubborn is commendable. In addition, veteran Batum is still strong at the age of 37. It is really respectable to plug and play like a microwave. The Clippers and the Nuggets are about to start a tiebreak battle, and the Clippers still need Batum's performance. Let's see whether Tyron Lu has the courage to start Batum directly in a G7 game that determines life and death. In the playoffs, the veterans are not dead, such a story is a bit passionate and exciting!
