Don’t look now, but the Clippers have the longest active winning streak in the NBA. The Clippers rallied from 12 down against the Denver Nuggets, to secure a 6 game winning streak.<\/p>\n
It was a tightly contested game with 15 lead changes, and 12 ties. However, the Clippers played poorly for most of the night. When you look at the box score, you would think it’s a game they lost. LA was outscored in points in the paint, had 20 turnovers, allowed 20 offensive rebounds,\u00a0 and shot 61% from the free throw line.<\/p>\n
The reason why the Clippers won this game was because of their second half defense. The most telling stat was the difference in Denver’s turnovers throughout the game. The Nuggets had only 3 turnovers in the first-half, but ended up with 18 in the second-half. The Clippers’ stingy 4th quarter defense really saved them.<\/p>\n
