The Los Angeles Clippers have been on and off form so far in the 2022-23 NBA season. There have been time spans when the team has struggled to win even a single game, but sometimes they play like the absolute best team in the league. Fortunately, they were the latter in their most recent game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
The win extended the Clippers’ current winning streak to three games, and it was the dynamic duo of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George who were the heroes of the victory. They combined for 52 points and ultimately was the deciding factor for the Clippers.
As for the Lakers, LeBron James had a phenomenal performance where he recorded 46 points, 8 rebounds, and 7 assists while making nine 3-pointers. The performance also helped him in inching one step closer to breaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s all-time scoring record.

Kawhi and LeBron are two of the best players of our generation. The two superstars have given fans a lot of memorable moments over the course of their respective careers. But that doesn’t mean they do not respect each other’s game or praise when necessary.
Leonard recently proved that when he shared his views on LeBron James being closer than ever to breaking Kareem’s all-time scoring record.

Kareem is undoubtedly one of the best players to ever play in the history of the NBA. The Los Angeles Lakers legend has held the record for most points scored in the regular season for several years now. But LeBron will certainly surpass him in the coming weeks, and it feels obvious that Kawhi will be happy when James does that.
