MIAMI - The Denver Nuggets bounced back with a vengeance on Saturday , powering to a 110-101 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers to even their National Basketball Association play-off series 1-1.

"Game 1, we were tired. I hate to admit it, but we were tired," said guard Jamal Murray, who led Denver with 27 points."We came out sloppy, came out exhausted, fatigued. We didn't make any shots, we didn't get back on defence.Nikola Jokic added 26 points and 18 rebounds for Denver, who had rallied from a 3-1 deficit to beat the Utah Jazz in seven games in the first round.

The NBA champion Raptors, who won Game 3 against the Celtics on Thursday on OG Anunoby's buzzer-beating three-pointer, clamped down defensively to win again, holding the Celtics to 20 per cent shooting from three-point range while draining 17 three-pointers themselves. "Feels like we're starting over," Siakam said, but added:"It's a great team we're playing against. It's not going to be easy. We know that.""We just continue to focus on every possession, every game," he said."We know how tough those guys are."
