Another Strong Performance
Blake Griffin went 8/9 in the first quarter with 19 points, putting the Clippers up 29-22.
With just over four minutes until halftime, the Raptors cut it to 48-43 with Griffin primarily on the bench. The Clips went on a 19-8 run to end the quarter, leading 67-51.
The Raptors made their final run to close the third quarter, coming within single-digits after trailing by as much as 22. However, 92-83 was as close as they got.
A three by Matt Barnes put us up 107-92 with seven minutes to go. Darren Collison pushed the lead to 118-101 after hitting a jumper with under two minutes left, sealing the win.
