Coming off the bench in Game 5, Lou Williams gave his team 30 points and 10 assists and played a major role down the stretch when the LA Clippers went on a 12-3 run to seal the game.

"For us, our focus was to come in, extend the series and get another win. ... It's their mistake for looking ahead. So that's on them", admitted Williams after beating the Warriors at the Oracle in Game 5.

Among reserves Williams is NBA's leading scorer, and that shows every time he steps foot on the court. The Clippers have beaten Golden State Warriors in Game 2 and Game 5 (both played at the Oracle) in which Williams scored a combined 69 points for his team.

In their latest clash, the 'walking bucket' shot a blazing 12-of-19 from the floor, including some clutch contested layups down the stretch to create some much needed separation.

More often than not, Sweet Lou has got his team a bucket whenever they've needed one. It's safe to say that he has been a decisive factor in stretching the series to as far as Game 6.
