Los Angeles Clippers

The early returns on the James Harden-led LA Clippers have not been positive, as they have lost five straight games including the four he has played in. Paul George and Norman Powell led the scoring against Memphis while Russell Westbrook finished with a double-double. While the season is still young and with the team adjusting to the addition of Harden, the Clippers rank 12th in the league and have room for improvement regarding their offense (#11) and defense (#14) as well as their rebounding, field goal percentage and 3-point defense. Mason Plumlee (knee) is out due to injury.

Denver Nuggets Analysis

The Denver Nuggets have started the new season with an 1-2 record, the best in the Western Conference, and appear to be handling the pressure of being a championship contender. Nikola Jokic had 36 points, 21 rebounds, and 11 assists in a losing effort against the Houston Rockets. Denver's offense has them ranked #9, scoring an average of 116.00 points per game with #1 in field goal percentage and #12 in 3-pt shooting. Defensively, the Nuggets are ranked #3 in points allowed per game and #4 in 3-pt defense. Denver is #14 in rebounding but fares well in turnovers, ranked #2 in turnovers per game. However, the team has been hampered by an injury to guard Jamal Murray. With the challenges of developing young players off the bench alongside adjusted playing style due to injuries and losses, the Denver Nuggets are confident as they compete for and NBA Championship title.

Nuggets Thrive Despite Murray's Absence, Clips Struggle Despite Easy Schedule

The Nuggets will be without Jamal Murray for the remainder of November as he recovers from a hamstring strain. In his stead, Reggie Jackson has been delivering as a scorer while Jokic handles the passing duties. The Clippers, however, are still trying to find stability with four veterans. Tyronne Lue must create the best rotations to maximize the players' abilities. Malone has an easier time with Jokic being the primary distributor and the Nuggets' defense has been impressive. Denver has been taking better care of the ball (6th in turnovers) and exhibiting the best field goal percentage in the league. Undoubtedly, the Clippers have suffered despite one of the easiest schedules in the league (ranked 28th). The Nuggets have the upper hand and are advised to take Denver -5.5.
