Los Angeles Clippers maintained a stronghold right at the start. Kawhi Leonard’s team picked up 22 points in the first half itself and Leonards dodged Royce O’Neale and Derrick Favors to throw down a massive dunk that set the tone for the match. Clippers triumphed over the top-seeded Utah Jazz, 118-104 in Game 4 tying the Western Conference semifinal series 2-2 after they fought their way back from being 2 down.
Coach Tyronn Lue’s squad have already pulled off a win after a 2-0 deficit in the series and this is the second time they are in a similar situation this postseason. Apart from great offense they held back Jazz to 42.9% shooting from the field and 40.5% from long range and had 8 steals and 7 blocked shots. Leonard and George Paul both scored 31 points each and led the team to a win.
