The train has not been late all season — the LA Clippers are going to trail by double digits in some point of a matinee game.
But for the 6th time this season, the Clippers came all the way back to win. Paul George led the way vs Cavs.

Paul George: 44 min, 23 points in the fourth, go-head stepback + critical block = 26-point comeback?

Somehow this game is tied at 115-115. Paul George has carried the Clippers with 37-11-6. But with Cleveland doubling him at all costs on last possession, Terance Mann came up with big 3 to tie game with 1:16 left. – 5:52 PM

10-rebound game for Paul George… the theory will be tested.
Tyronn Lue timeout after 3 straight scoreless possessions, and PG not getting back allowed Strus to steal a bucket.
Cavaliers lead 106-100 with 5:54 left. – 5:39 PM

James Harden will start today with Terance Mann, Paul George, PJ Tucker, Ivica Zubac vs Cavaliers
I am told that it is likely that Harden will rest in at least one game final week of season. Was a consideration today, but you know… James wants to play – 3:04 PM

The days of Houston Harden are long gone, to be sure, but this notion of him struggling to solve these kinds of defensive puzzles is still foreign for anyone who watched him cook for all those years with the Rockets. He doesn’t need to be that guy with this Clippers crew, but they can’t afford for him to be a total non-factor as a scorer either. When George was asked afterward what the Clippers might need to do to help Harden get out of his scoring rut, he threw the ball back to Lue and his staff. “I’m not a coach,” George said while shaking his head. “I’m not the coach. Next question.” -via The Athletic / April 4, 2024
