Clippers - Lakers Recap

The battle of the Staples center! And yes in the end it was a battle! The Clippers were down pretty much this whole game and the Lakers thought it was going to be a walk in the park but that wasn't the case in the fouth quarter.

A game you think that the Clippers just might cash it in during the fourth quarter after being down by 10-12 all game to the Lakers who are just a better team than the Clippers and have more depth and talent. But that wasn't the case tonight either. The Clippers played with heart in the fourth quarter and actually seemed to want to win. They out scored the Lakers by 9 in the fourth quarter which is a pretty amazing stat because usually the Clippers get out scored big in the fourth quarter to lose the game. But the Clippers played with a hunger for a win and came up just short. But again it was really nice to see them battle and play with some heart. I hope that the Clippers can remember how it feels to play with heart and carry it over to next season because they have the talent but they just didn't have the heart this year.
