New additions to both the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Clippers saw a solid chunk of minutes in Thursday 's matchup . Golden State Warriors import Mo Speights brought his inside game and perimeter shooting to the Clippers in a needed position of depth , and shined in 16 minutes of play where he finished with 15 points on 4 - of - 8 shooting including a pair of threes . Evan Turner , formerly of the Boston Celtics , was not on display as much as Speights , but played 23 minutes . Defensively , Turner was effective on the wing , but was unable to shoot all that efficiently from the floor , evidenced by his six points on eight shots . Turner did add six rebounds in his time off the bench . Allen Crabbe might not be a new addition to the Blazers , but he did get a shiny new contract in the offseason and added 10 points , four assists and a rebound in 32 minutes of action . The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Portland Trail Blazers , 114 - 106 , at Moda Center on Thursday . The Clippers ( 10 ) were the last team to tip off for an opening game amongst the league and capped it off with an impressive road win . The matchup continued where Los Angeles left off at the end of last season 's first - round playoffs , save for a fully healthy unit and one that was in a physical mentality throughout the game . DeAndre Jordan and Mason Plumlee got into a scrap after a hard foul landed both in the courtside seats beneath the rim in the third quarter , while C.J . McCollum returned a hard foul Jordan 's way at the other end of the floor in the fourth quarter . The referring was also in question at times , much to the home crowd 's disapproval , as Blake Griffin and JJ Reddick had flagrant fouls go there way in the second half . The back - and - forth affair was tight knit through the first three quarters of play , but the Clippers were able to pull away by 15 points with 2:54 left in the fourth quarter . A series of inspired plays from Harkless , McCollum and Lillard cut the lead to five after a driving layup from the star point guard with :22 left on the clock . Paul drew a foul from Shabazz Napier on the ensuing possession to ice the game at the free throw line . Chris Paul and Blake Griffin led the Clippers , as both players were everywhere on both ends of the court , striking from the mid range , putting back dunks , running down the Blazers backcourt in transition and keeping Reddick and Jordan active at the perimeter and under the rim . Paul and Griffin combined for 54 points , 18 rebounds and five assists in the win . Lillard poured in 29 points on 11 - of - 24 shooting , to go along with 10 rebounds and three assists . Harkless , Plumlee and McCollum joined Lillard in double figures , but the 22 percent three - point shooting was far from where coach Terry Stotts would have liked the Blazers to be on their home court . The Blazers will visit the Denver Nuggets on Saturday , while the Clippers play their first home game hosting the Utah Jazz on Sunday .
