Tonight's Game 7 between the Denver Nuggets and the LA Clippers at Ball Arena is poised to be a thrilling conclusion to their tightly contested first-round series. 

Game 7 Trends and Insights

Home-Court Advantage: Historically, home teams have a significant edge in Game 7s, winning approximately 75% of the time . This advantage is attributed to factors like familiar surroundings, supportive crowds, and reduced travel fatigue. 

Recent Momentum: The Clippers forced this Game 7 with a 111-105 victory in Game 6, showcasing strong performances from James Harden and Kawhi Leonard . However, the Nuggets, led by Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, have demonstrated resilience and playoff experience, which could be pivotal in a high-stakes game.   ......with that Being said Gimmie the NUGGETS $$

 Historical data shows a strong correlation between Game 5 winners and home teams in Game 7 winning their series, especially in tightly contested matchups.

NBA Playoffs – Key Stats:

1. Game 5 Winner Wins the Series ~82% of the Time

In a best-of-7 series tied 2-2, the winner of Game 5 goes on to win the series about 82% of the time.

It’s often the “swing game” in a 2-2 series — shifting momentum and creating an elimination buffer.

2. Home Teams in Game 7 Win ~76% of the Time

As of recent seasons, home teams are 112–34 (76.7%) in Game 7s.

Denver specifically is 3–0 in Game 7s at home under Jokic/Murray in recent years.

Combining Both Trends:

If the home team in Game 7 also won Game 5, the historical odds of them winning Game 7 go above 80%.

In this series:

Denver won Game 5 at home

Denver is home for Game 7

Ty Lue has a perfect 4-0 record in Game 7's as a head coach

@JFEEZEE

Well, no. The Nuggets' two Game 7 "home" wins in the phony Florida bubble of 2020 don't count. In fact, they don't count for squat. WIth last night's big win over the Clippers, the Nuggets are now 2-2 at Ball Arena in Game 7 during the Jokic/Murray era.

You were most wise to feel that way. I hope Clippers owner Steve Ballmer now has enough sense to direct that The Beard be shipped to a new NBA home.

No, he was 1-0 prior to last night. The Clippers won Game 7 in the first playoff series Lue coached in 2021. The Clippers didn't participate again in a Game 7 until last night.

Ty Lue was 3-0 in Game 7's as the Cavs Head Coach.
