The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Boston Celtics , 116 - 102 , at Staples Center on Monday . The Clippers ( 38 - 25 ) needed to sub in the likes of Chris Paul and Blake Griffin late in the fourth quarter after Brad Steven 's testy defensive unit was able to compete down the stretch . The last four minutes added some drama after Jamal Crawford and DeAndre Jordan hooked up time and time again to put the Clippers up as many as 16 points with under 7:0 minutes remaining in the final period . Paul and Griffin were sitting on the bench late , leaving the game in the hands of Raymond Felton and Crawford , and both players had body parts wrapped in ice . Los Angeles has had trouble closing out games this season , but even a motivated Celtics ( 40 - 24 ) squad without Al Horford ( elbow ) was not able to overcome the deficit . Chris Paul and Blake Griffin did their damage early , and went on to finish with 23 points and 26 points , respectively . Paul added five rebounds and four assists , while Griffin contributed eight boards and five dimes . Crawford missed his first five shots from the field , but went on to sink the next five and finished with 19 points and five assists . DeAndre Jordan also grabbed most of his points late , and added 15 points and 12 boards in the win . Isaiah Thomas led the Celtics and all scorers with 32 points , to go with five assists and three steals , while Avery Bradley pitched in 14 points . Marcus Smart was the next most effective Boston player on the floor , and added 21 points in 32 minutes off the bench , to go with three rebounds , three assists and one steal . Next up , the Celtics visit the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday , while the Clippers play the same night and visit the Minnesota Timberwolves . The Celtics were testy down the stretch and the creativity of Brad Stevens ' defensive lineups almost paid dividends for Boston , but in the end , Chris Paul was able take the Clippers home . Paul finished with 23 points , five rebounds and four assists , while Griffin led the Clippers in scoring 26 points , to go with eight rebounds and five assists . DeAndre Jordan also grabbed most of his points late , and added 15 points and 12 boards in the win .
