Regular Season Round 33: LA Clippers - Memphis G. 98-91

Date: January 26, 2012
Blake Griffin finished with 20 points, nine rebounds and eight assists, leading the Clippers to a 98-91 victory over the Grizzlies at Staples Center. Chris Paul and Mo Williams each scored 18 points, while Caron Butler netted 16 to help Los Angeles rebounded from a loss to the rival Lakers on Wednesday. Rudy Gay had 24 points to pace the Grizzlies, who made it competitive despite being down 16 points in the first quarter. Nonetheless, Memphis fell for the second straight game on the heels of a seven-game winning streak. There were a combined 19 lead changes and 13 ties in the second and third frames, but none in the fourth. Los Angeles brought a tenuous 74-72 lead into the final stanza and went ahead 89-80 on DeAndre Jordan's alley-oop dunk with 4:46 remaining. The closest the Grizzlies got from there was two, 91-89, following two Gay free throws with 79 seconds on the clock. Butler made it a two-possession game with a driving layup, then teamed with Paul to fore a Gay turnover at the other end. The Clippers finished off the win at the foul line. Memphis trailed by as many as 16 in the first quarter, but got a lift when Gay let one fly from between the opposite three-point line and center court. The buzzer-beating heave somehow banked in to cut the deficit to 29-17, and the Grizzlies pulled closer by scoring the first 11 points of the second quarter, which ended with the Clippers holding a slim 45-44 edge. *Courtesy of www.canada.com
