In the fierce confrontation of G6 in the first round of the NBA playoffs, the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Denver Nuggets 111-105, dragging the series into a tiebreak battle. This game is the most classic "confrontation on the cliff" in this year's playoffs. After the game, well-known commentator Xu Jingyu gave in-depth and unique comments on the game. His analysis was recognized by the majority of fans and sparked heated discussion.

Xu Jingyu praised Harden's performance. In this game, Harden played for nearly 47 minutes, scoring 28 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, making 10 of 20 shots, 3 of 8 three-pointers, 5 free throws, 5 free throws, 5 of 5 free throws, 38% of three-point shooting, and 100% of free throws, and performed extremely well on both ends of offense and defense. Harden was doing his best throughout the game, combining sudden shots on the offensive end, sharp breakthroughs tear open the Nuggets' defense line again and again, creating scoring opportunities for himself, and giving wonderful passes to his teammates, revitalizing the entire offensive system of the Clippers. On the defensive end, Harden has also been unremitting, actively fighting and contributing key steals and blocks, effectively limiting the Nuggets' offense. Xu Jingyu said: "Harden played 47 minutes in the game, leaving no room for anything, and retreat never existed in Harden's dictionary. Just like when he was in the Nets, he became the only player in NBA history who was medically identified as a second-degree strain. He was always so brave and decisive." Harden's performance in the game fully demonstrated the strength and responsibility of a superstar.

Clippers coach Tyron Lu's ability to coach on-the-spot has also been highly praised by Xu Jingyu. During the game, Tyron Lu found that Dunn was not effective on the court, so he decisively abandoned it and replaced it with Batum. After Batum came on the court, the Clippers' lineup space was widened, Harden had more room for breakthroughs and passing, and the team's offense played more smoothly and reasonably. Meanwhile, Batum also performed well on the defensive end, with his blocks and steals adding a solid barrier to the Clippers' defense. Xu Jingyu commented: "Tyron Lu reacted quickly in this game and removed Dunn, who performed poorly in the defensive end in the starting lineup. Batum's lineup completely filled the space after he came on the court. Harden's pick-and-roll and breakthrough kept the team's offense continuously. Even Jokic could not lead the team to a stronger team attack than Harden. In the end, the Clippers won relatively easily." Tyron Lu's decision showed his wisdom and courage as a champion coach.

Looking forward to the tiebreak battle, Xu Jingyu predicts that Batum will replace Dunn as the starter and continue to provide space for Harden, while Harden will lead the Clippers to defeat the Nuggets away in the tiebreak battle. He also boldly predicted that the Clippers will compete for the championship this year. From Xu Jingyu's words, you can feel his trust and expectation for the Clippers and Harden.

Now, the tiebreak battle between the Clippers and the Nuggets is about to break out. Was it the Clippers successfully advanced under the leadership of Harden and moved towards the goal of the championship, or the Nuggets turning the tide and defending their own honor? Let's wait and see!
