Patrick Beverley & Paul George Admit Why The Lakers Beat The Clippers

“It’s hard to beat any team three times in this league. They beat us in the third game. We got another one. It doesn’t set us back. They played. They were the team that really wanted it. They went and got it today. We have to play them one more time. Life goes on. We’re not down about it. Just keep it rolling.”

Paul George seems to make this a battle of effort, but it’s deeper than that. PG13 had 31 total points but was held to just 2 points in the 4th quarter.

On top of it all, the Clippers were sloppy from the free-throw line, shooting 75.7%, missing 9 shots. 9 extra points would have made this a tie game at the end of regulation with a score of 112-112.
