Steve Ballmer attended his first home game as the new Los Angeles Clippers owner Wednesday Night and he saw a beauty. The Clippers who have struggled all preseason long, rose to the occasion and beat the Phoenix Suns 108-105.
Blake Griffin and Chris Paul combined for 69 points in last nights win. Griffin had 35 points and 7 rebounds, while Paul added 34 points, 9 assists, and four steals.
The stars stepped up big in the fourth quarter. The two of them scored 26 of the final 29 points for the Clippers as they led the way to victory.
Blake Griffin had this to say about the win according to ESPN.com and the Clippers offical website
“I’ve learned about individual guys,” Griffin said of the preseason, according to the Clippers’ website. “I’m really seeing what they do and what their tendencies are and what they’re going to really help us at. That’s promising, but I think your identity as a team, it’s tough to create that identity and learn a lot about your team within three weeks, four weeks, whatever it’s been.”
The Clippers will play their final preseason game against the Portland Trail Blazers at the Staples Center on Friday. The season is just a week away, as the Clippers will open up against Russell Westbrook and the Oklahoma City Thunder on October 30th at home.
