The LA Clippers rode a 17-point first quarter lead to even the series at two a piece, successfully defending their home court. Paul George and Kawhi Leonard were outstanding on both ends of the floor, scoring 31 points each for the Clips. Donovan Mitchell had his sixth straight game of 30 or more, but didn’t shoot at a high clip from the field, going 9-26. Every home team has won thus far in the series, and they will head back to Utah to begin a best of three for a spot in the conference finals.

LA has now beat Utah by double-digits in both of their home games, but ironically struggled to defend their own court against Dallas in the previous series. Kawhi and PG have each scored 31+ points in both of their home games this series so far, and are getting the job done on the defensive end as well. They both embody a true two-way wing, showcasing the capability to shut someone down on one end and give them a bucket on the other. They’re the best in the West and luckily for LAC fans, they play on the same team.
