LOS ANGELES (AP)—Energized by the prospect of taking on the Big Three, the Los Angeles Clippers came out attacking and never let up.
Blake Griffin(notes) had 24 points and 14 rebounds for his 30th double-double, and the Clippers surprised Miami 111-105 Wednesday night, ending the Heat’s 13-game road winning streak

the "Heatles" - as LeBron James referred to his teammates earlier this week
It will be interesting to see if Kaman will be playing by then.
Expect Blake to guard Bargnani.
EJ vs DeRozan should be an interesting matchup.
VDN has them playing solid defense and it is only going to get better.
Should be one of the more entertaining games on the Raptors remaining home schedule.
Kaman might be available though I would not suggest that BC trade for him.
Possible matchups
Bargnani vs Blake - Doubt that Bargnani can slow Blake down.
Johnson vs Jordan - Amir is no match for Jordan in the paint
Kleiza vs Gomes - Gomes is proving to be a pretty darn good defender. He has the size to defend Kleiza
EJ vs DeRozan - No way DeRozan can stop him
BD - Calderon - Raptors may win this battle though I wouldn't bet on it.
Bench
----------
Edge to Clips
Bargnani and DeRozan will have to put up at least a combined 50 for the Raptors to have a chance.
