It was more of the same in the third, the Clippers going down by 18 points before pulling to within 14 at the end of the quarter. The Clippers made one last push in the fourth after they trailed by 14 points midway through the quarter. With Chris Paul (left thumb surgery) still out, the Clippers are just trying to hold on to the best spot they can get. “The fourth seed I would love it, but I’m not going to worry about,” Clippers Coach Doc Rivers said. The Raptors beat Brooklyn on Sunday to win for just the third time in 11 games.
