Clippers’ Paul George mocks PJ Washington as he recreates the Mavs star’s pose from Game 3 after hitting a shot over him… before LA nearly blows a 31-point lead in dramatic win over Dallas

Paul George mockingly recreated PJ Washington’s crossed arms from last night on Sunday as the Clippers evened the series against the Mavs.

Washington went viral earlier this week during Game 3 when he struck the picturesque pose amid a scuffle between the teams.

And George returned the favor in Game 4 after hitting a three-pointer on Washington in the first half.

The Clippers fell behind late in the fourth quarter after leading by 31 earlier in the game, but held their nerve to win 116-111 and tie the series at 2-2.

George had 33 points, eight assists and six rebounds in the win.

After Game 3, which Dallas won 101-90, Washington explained the origins of his pose ESPN.

‘[The Clippers’ Terrance] Mann was upset that I was looking at their couch, so I decided to take another look.”

Washington humorously added, “I wanted to get my films right for after the game.”

The scuffle started when Mann bumped into Washington after a play, with both receiving technical fouls.

Washington was later ejected after interfering in another scuffle, coming to Mavs star Luka Doncic’s defense following a foul by Russell Westbrook that Washington disagreed with.

The Clippers won again on Sunday without Kawhi Leonard, who missed the series opener with right knee inflammation before playing in the two wins in Dallas.

Kyrie Irving scored 40 points for Dallas, including an acrobatic layup with 2:15 left for a 104-103 lead, the Mavericks’ first since the middle of the first quarter.

Luka Doncic had 29 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in his fourth career triple-double, all against the Clippers.

Game 5 is Wednesday night in Los Angeles.
