The Los Angeles Clippers weren’t able to pull out a win tonight against the Dallas Mavericks. The game ended 129-99.
Although it was a big night for DeAndre Jordan, as he scored the first three of his career, the Clippers struggled to keep up with the Mavs. J.J. Redick put up 17 points but went cold after halftime. Chris Paul had 11 points, seven assists and five steals.
The Clippers most recently beat the Mavericks but tonight was a different story from their offense.
Dirk Nowitzki had 14 points as well as Chandler and Ellis. He was one of five Dallas players with two 3-pointers that helped the Mavericks pull away from the finish line just after the Clippers got within 65-62 early in the third quarter.
Rajon Rondo led Dallas tonight with seven assists, including a “behind-the-back pass” to Ellis for an easy jumper after he had one of his four steals in the backcourt. Charlie Villanueva led the team in three double-figure scorers off the bench with 19 points. Devin Harris and J.J. Barea both had 15 apiece.
The Los Angeles Clippers will be looking forward to getting Blake back from injury! Up next the Clippers will take on the Houston Rockets!
