Kawhi Leonard scored 21 points, but the Clippers saw their double-digit lead evaporate in the second half in the 115-91 loss to the Golden State Warriors.
Paul George had 25 points and Kawhi Leonard 23 as the Clippers dropped their third straight game in the 108-101 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.The strategy of avoidance is not unique in Westbrook’s career but was employed to this extent for the first time as a Clipper, underscored the challenge of spacing with Westbrook, who made three of his 12 shots, and none of the seven he attempted outside the paint.
Westbrook was responsible for two turnovers, but also just two misses, during a game-changing third quarter that saw the Clippers commit more turnovers than make field goals , their 16 combined points fewer than the 22 scored in the quarter by Golden State guard Jordan Poole. Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard is fouled by Golden State Warriors guard Donte DiVincenzo during the first half on Thursday in San Francisco.The trouble deepened in the fourth quarter, the deficit growing to 16 after Westbrook badly overthrew an entry pass into the post, then Poole made his fifth three-pointer on the next possession after George could not chase him around a screen.
Westbrook displayed in stretches, yet again, why the Clippers have felt comfortable about his play thus far. Before the Warriors’ defense could get set, he ended one possession with a layup by speeding up the pace in transition, and finished another with a pinpoint pass from the top of the arc to George under the basket for a layup even though the Warriors had again packed the paint with defenders, baiting Westbrook to shoot.
