Clippers Look To Shock The Thunder Again In Game 2
The Los Angeles Clippers put on a show on Monday night in game one, and the star of the show was Chris Paul; now they will look to steal another game form Oklahoma City as they face the Thunder this Wednesday at 9:30 PM ET, in game two.
Chris Paul had 33 points, 10 assists and scored eight three pointers in a row in game one.
“The next game, I might have 12 points, 10 points, maybe not even that many,” he said Tuesday. “I think I’m one of those people — whatever it takes to win. I don’t care. I’m never going to lead the league in scoring or anything like that. It’s just whatever to try to win.”
“When a guy hits five or six 3s in a row, you don’t want to give him some more, and that is when they started to get some stuff in the paint,” said Thunder forward Kevin Durant, who was named MVP on Tuesday.
The OKC Thunder is 5.5 point favorites to bounce back after the loss in game one. The game total was set at 215 points.
