Clippers continue road trip in Charlotte
Basketball Betting Lines
02/11/2012 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Los Angeles Clippers continue their lengthy Grammy Road
Trip by visiting the Queen City to take on the hapless Charlotte Bobcats.
Chris Paul buried a game-winning shot with 3.2 seconds remaining on Friday as
the Clippers improved to 3-1 on their six-game trek with a thrilling 78-77 win
in Philadelphia.
A pair of Lou Williams free throws had Philadelphia up, 77-76, with 18 seconds
remaining, but Paul hit a twisting, fadeaway jumper near the foul line that
proved to be the difference.
Paul finished with a game-high 24, Blake Griffin added 16 and 11 rebounds and
Mo Williams scored 14. Former 76er Reggie Evans didn't score, but impacted the
contest with 10 rebounds -- five offensive -- in 19 minutes of action.
"One thing I pride myself on is ball handling," said Paul. "I may not make
every shot but I feel like I can get any shot that I want because of ball
handling. I've always been undersized, so one thing I know is that I can
create my own shot."
Los Angeles will finish its trip in Dallas, and is 6-5 as the guest this
season as well as a solid 7-2 against the Eastern Conference.
Charlotte, meanwhile, is a miserable 3-23 on the year and enters tonight's
contest having matched a franchise record by dropping 13 in a row.
The Bobcats' most recent loss came on Friday when a Derrick Rose-less Chicago
team waltzed into Charlotte and destroyed the Bobcats, 95-64. Derrick Brown
was the lone Charlotte player to reach double figures in scoring, finishing
with 10 as the team matched it's other 13-game skid from Jan. 11-Feb. 1, 2006.
Kemba Walker scored nine points on 2-of-11 shooting from the floor, while
Boris Diaw, Bismack Biyombo and Cory Higgins added eight points apiece.
"I don't know what it was. We just weren't in it," said Charlotte head coach
Paul Silas.
Bobcats leading scorer Gerald Henderson remains out with a strained hamstring
while point guard D.J. Augustin is expected to miss his 10th consecutive game
tonight with an injured toe.
The Clippers, of course, are without veteran guard Chauncey Billups, who is
out for the season after suffering a torn left Achillies earlier this week.
LA has won two straight and three of its last four over Charlotte.
