The Los Angeles Clippers mounted the greatest comeback in NBA playoff history Monday, rallying from a 31-point deficit in the second half to defeat the Golden State Warriors in Game 2 of their first-round series.
Down 23 points at halftime, a hole created by careless L.A. turnovers, Shamet asked coach Doc Rivers how many points the Clippers had trailed by on Feb. 9 in Boston, his first game with the team after the trade deadline. Twenty-eight, Rivers answered.The Boston comeback galvanized a team wondering whether its moves at the trade deadline signaled a franchise tanking or making a playoff run. But Game 2 was something else completely given the nature of the competition.
Beverley fouled out with 4:29 remaining and his team down four, to the glee of Warriors fans and forward Draymond Green, who waved goodbye. When Green dunked on the next possession, the lead felt safe at six.“Once you lose momentum against a really good team,” Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. “It’s hard to get it back.”
“I was honest with them I said I don’t know how,” Rivers said of his halftime message. “I said we’re going to figure this out, but just hang in there with each other.”The loss was the second setback of the night for Golden State. Cousins provided the Warriors a fearsome fifth option upon his return from an Achilles’ injury in January but his fit wasn’t seamless. In Game 1, the Warriors’ starters had been outscored by six points in their 13 minutes together. Another lineup with Cousins was outscored by 10 points in six minutes. Should the injury cost Cousins significant time, it could cost the Warriors as the playoffs continue.Leading by one point at the time of Cousins’ injury, the Warriors were up 23 at halftime.
