There is no reason to believe they can't force a Game 7 in this series due to that. The LA Clippers have displayed unbelievable resiliency throughout the 2021 NBA playoffs.

Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns committed 14 turnovers on the offensive end and could only accumulate 32 points in the paint, an area they have dominated previously in the 2021 NBA playoffs. He also had the worst +/- rating among the Suns' players (-22). The Clippers scored a whopping 58 points in the Phoenix Suns' paint as Deandre Ayton had an off-night, recording only 10 points and 11 rebounds. The Suns lacked the energy they have had all postseason defensively and made multiple errors on that end, which resulted in their loss. They allowed the LA Clippers to attack with ease, which saw the Suns go down by 15 points (20-5) to open the game. The Phoenix Suns did not look aggressive at all in Game 5. The Game 5 loss was a tough pill to swallow for them as they missed out on the chance to celebrate a series win with their own fans at the Phoenix Suns Arena. Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns will be looking to bounce back and confirm their first NBA Finals trip since 1993. It also presents yet another chance for their head coach, Ty Lue, to script a comeback from being down 1-3 in a series. The Game 5 win by the LA Clippers has now given the NBA Western Conference Finals a new life. The Clippers defeated the Suns 116-102 on the back of a playoff-career-high outing from Paul George, who tallied 41 points on the night. The LA Clippers put in a stellar performance to save their season on Monday and force a Game 6 against the Phoenix Suns at Staples Center to be held on June 30th.
