When San Antonio went up by 10 late in the second quarter with some classic Spursian ball movement and shotmaking, it looked like this series might not reach Game 7. But after an unfortunate Tim Duncan foul sent him to the bench, the Clippers climbed back into Game 6 and held on for a 102-96 win.

The best series of the first round is going seven games, and it should be an incredible finale.

Chris Paul shrugged aside a poor first half to control in the second, while Blake Griffin was fantastic for the entirety of the game. He's finding new ways to dominate games, using an improved all-around skill set instead of just relying on athleticism. With averages of 24 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists, he has a strong case as the best player of this series.
The other candidate for that title is Kawhi Leonard, who has been equally magnificent. His averages of 22 points on 49 percent shooting and 45 percent from behind the three-point line don't tell how commanding his defense has been. With the way he disrupts opponents big or small, his Defensive Player of the Year award was much deserved.
When looking at the first round, this series was clearly the best -- the only one to feature to two teams with realistic title opportunities. It has lived up to it in every particular way, culminating in this Game 7. You absolutely should watch it. Here’s how.
