Nuggets' Aaron Gordon loses his mind chasing Clippers' James Harden in on-court scuffle

The Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Clippers got into it.

It started with a second-quarter foul by Christian Braun on James Harden.

The foul didn't look like much, but Harden was ticked and got in Braun's face. 

The players came together quickly, and Denver forward Aaron Gordon got the most heated. He reached for Harden, who slapped back at Gordon, who then chased after Harden.

Multiple players got in Gordon's way before he could get through and do more damage to Harden.

The referees spent about five minutes at the video monitor and in discussion to decide whether to eject anyone.

In the end, technical fouls were called on Harden, Norman Powell, Kris Dunn, Gordon, Nikola Jokic and Braun. They end up as offsetting technical fouls.

The ref ruled there were no official punches thrown, and therefore no ejections.

At the time of the conflict, the Nuggets led the Clippers 50-48 with six seconds left in the first half. It's Game 4, with Los Angeles leading Denver by two games to one.

These teams got in a Game 2 scuffle, too, when Jamal Murray and Norman Powell got into it after a play. Murray appeared to legitimately left up Powell and the teams shoved for a while.

Stay tuned, because it's going to stay hot as long as this series stays close.
