“’He loves it. loves the moment. He’s a big-time player. Sometimes we go back and forth, but he’s held us together all year.”

It almost felt as if the 31-year-old was toying with their LA rivals. During one of the plays, the 6-foot-2 Clipper crossed Westbrook up, got fouled, talked trash after getting into a verbal altercation, and knocked down a tough 3-pointer with LBJ all over him.
