The Los Angeles Clippers' poor shooting from a night earlier improved to gain a split in a two-game set with the Memphis Grizzlies. Kawhi Leonard scored 30 points, Lou Williams added 17 and the Clippers beat the Memphis 119-99 on Friday night to split a two-game series. "They made a focus on the paint, limiting our paint touches," Valanciunas said about Los Angeles' defense. While the teams played even in the first quarter, Los Angeles held the Grizzlies to 17 points in the second. The Clippers concentrated on guarding the paint better than the previous game when Memphis amassed 72 paint points.
