LOS \u00c1NGELES (AP) El entrenador de los Clippers, Tyronn Lue, buscaba una actuaci\u00f3n excelente de Paul George y Kawhi Leonard. Ambos entregaron juegos de Grado A para que Los \u00c1ngeles volviera a su serie de segunda ronda contra Utah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leonard anot\u00f3 34 puntos y George agreg\u00f3 31 en la victoria de los Clippers por 132-106 en el Juego 3 el s\u00e1bado por la noche. Es la segunda vez que ambos anotan al menos 30 en el mismo juego de playoffs, y ayudaron al sembrado No. 4 LA a recortar la ventaja de la serie de Utah, el mejor sembrado, a 2-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abSabemos que son dos de los mejores de la liga\u00bb, dijo Lue. \u00bb Como dije ayer, no voy a Mastro’s para pedir la salsa de tomate. Voy a pedir el bistec. Y esta noche, nuestros muchachos quieren bistec. Eso es lo que necesitamos \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

George dispar\u00f3 solo el 34,3% desde el campo en los dos primeros juegos, pero acert\u00f3 12 de 24, incluyendo 6 de 10 en triples. Anot\u00f3 13 puntos en el segundo cuarto, ocho durante una racha de 13-2 cuando LA tom\u00f3 el control y tom\u00f3 una ventaja de 57-41 con 2:54 por jugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abCreo que simplemente dispar\u00e9 mis tiros, obtuve los tiros con los que me sent\u00eda m\u00e1s c\u00f3modo y me mantuve firme\u00bb, dijo George.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leonard anot\u00f3 24 puntos en la segunda mitad. Es el cuarto juego de postemporada de su carrera con al menos 30 puntos, 10 rebotes y cinco asistencias. Tres han llegado en sus dos temporadas con los Clippers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Las grandes noches de Leonard y George ayudaron a compensar otro juego de alta puntuaci\u00f3n de Donovan Mitchell. El base lider\u00f3 a Utah con 30 puntos, su quinto juego consecutivo con al menos 30. El \u00faltimo jugador en hacerlo fue Leonard el a\u00f1o pasado en la primera ronda contra Dallas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDejamos que se sientan c\u00f3modos. George acert\u00f3 algunos tiros, pero podemos hacerlo m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil para \u00e9l y Kawhi \u00bb, dijo Mitchell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reggie Jackson y Nicolas Batum agregaron 17 puntos cada uno para los Clippers. LA hab\u00eda tenido problemas desde el per\u00edmetro en los primeros dos juegos, pero acert\u00f3 19 de 36 en triples y muchos vinieron en miradas abiertas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abLos disparos entran o no, nuestro trabajo es seguir siendo agresivos con nosotros mismos y con los dem\u00e1s\u00bb, dijo Leonard. \u00bb Si Paul lo tiene, vamos a ir con \u00e9l. Si lo hago funcionar, vendr\u00e1 a m\u00ed. Pero si alguien m\u00e1s en el equipo lo tiene en marcha, vamos a intentar darles el siguiente tiro tambi\u00e9n \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joe Ingles tuvo 19 puntos para Utah y Jordan Clarkson agreg\u00f3 14. El Jazz acert\u00f3 19 de 44 en triples, pero 17 de 40 dentro del arco debido a que la zona defensiva de los Clippers caus\u00f3 problemas. Utah cometi\u00f3 16 p\u00e9rdidas de bal\u00f3n, que llevaron a 24 puntos de LA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LOS ANGELES (AP) Clippers coach Tyronn Lue was looking for a prime performance from both Paul George and Kawhi Leonard. They both delivered Grade A games to get Los Angeles back into its second-round series against Utah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leonard scored 34 points and George added 31 in the Clippers’ 132-106 victory in Game 3 on Saturday night. It is the second time both have scored at least 30 in the same playoff game, and helped No. 4 seed LA cut top-seeded Utah’s series lead to 2-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbWe know that they are two of the best in the league,\u00bb Lue said. \u00bbLike I said yesterday, I don’t go to Mastro’s to order the ketchup. I go to order the steak. And tonight, our guys want steak. That’s what we need.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

George shot only 34.3% from the field in the first two games but was 12 of 24, including 6 of 10 on 3-pointers. He had 13 points in the second quarter, eight during a 13-2 run when LA seized control and took a 57-41 advantage with 2:54 remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbI think I just shot my shots, got the shots I’m most comfortable with and stuck with it,\u00bb George said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leonard scored 24 points in the second half. It is his fourth career postseason game with at least 30 points, 10 rebounds and five assists. Three have come in his two seasons with the Clippers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The big nights from Leonard and George helped offset another high-scoring game from Donovan Mitchell. The guard led Utah with 30 points, his fifth straight games with at least 30. The last player to do that was Leonard last year in the first round against Dallas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbWe kind of let them get comfortable. George hit some shots, but we can make it tougher on him and Kawhi,\u00bb Mitchell said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reggie Jackson and Nicolas Batum added 17 points apiece for the Clippers. LA had struggled from the perimeter in the first two games but was 19 of 36 on 3-pointers with many coming on open looks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00bbShots go in or not, our job is to keep being aggressive for ourselves and others,\u00bb Leonard said. \u00bbIf Paul has it going, we’re going to go to him. If I got it going, it’s going to come to me. But if anybody else on the team has it going, we are going to try to get them the next shot as well.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joe Ingles had 19 points for Utah and Jordan Clarkson added 14. The Jazz were 19 of 44 on 3-pointers, but 17 of 40 inside the arc as the Clippers’ zone defense caused problems. Utah committed 16 turnovers, which led to 24 LA points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
