Paul, Griffin post monster lines; LAC up 3-1
Chris Paul - G - Los Angeles Clippers
May 8, 2012 - 2:25 AM ET
Chris Paul scored 27 points on 10-of-22 shooting (1-of-3 from deep, 6-of-6 from the line) with nine rebounds and seven assists in the Clippers' 101-97 Game 4 win over the Grizzlies on Monday.
Paul turned in a virtuoso performance and Blake Griffin provided the context of tonight's whistle-fest with his incessant flopping and physical play. Griffin had 30 points on 10-of-15 shooting (10-of-17 from the foul line) with five rebounds, seven assists, and a steal, Randy Foye scored just three points on 1-of-5 shooting, DeAndre Jordan scored six points with four boards, one steal, and three blocks, Caron Butler scored 14 points with a broken hand, Mo Williams scored nine points on 3-of-10 shooting, and Reggie Evans made a handful of big plays with eight boards and two steals on the night. The Clips head to Memphis on Wednesday up 3-1.
