DENVER -- The Los Angeles Clippers and Denver Nuggets' first-round clash shifted in Game 2, with the Clippers stealing homecourt advantage and winning 105-102 on the road. The obvious highlight was the absurd performance of Kawhi Leonard, who went 15-of-19 from the field on the way to 39 points, mostly on jump shots.
