Lakers vs. Clippers was the most anticipated game of the regular season, and boy, it did not disappoint. The Lakers led by as many as 15 in the second half, but the Clippers fought back to tie the game by the end of the third quarter. The Lakers built up another lead in the fourth, but the Clippers locked down on defense and ultimately won the game on defense. The Lakers scored only three points in the final four minutes and 58 seconds of this game, whereas the Clippers at least managed to get to the line and win on free throws.
Ultimately, it was a review that sealed the deal for the Clippers. Patrick Beverley managed to deflect a last-second 3-point attempt from LeBron James that would have tied the game off of James himself. The Clippers were awarded the ball upon review, and they sank two more free-throws to seal the deal at 111-106.
The Clippers are now 2-0 against the Lakers this season, and despite starting the season 24-3, the Lakers now only have a one-game lead in the loss column for the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference ahead of the Denver Nuggets. The Clippers, now 23-10, are in hot pursuit of the No. 1 seed as well. These two teams have at least two more regular-season games left against one another, but if tonight was any indication, a playoff series between the two would be one of the best in NBA history.
