The Los Angeles Clippers play a smash-mouth style of basketball. With Patrick Beverley and Montrezl Harrell having their best playoff series to date, the Clippers have beaten the mighty Golden State Warriors twice in five games.
Now up just 3-2, the Warriors need to close out the series on Friday night or risk a winner-take-all Game 7. Given how the Warriors have responded following losses both this postseason and during the regular season, expect Golden State to close out the series in Game 6.
As the Clippers would have it, much of the overall outcome is in their hands.
