Josh Dhani 
Posted in LOS ANGELES — Danny Granger played solid. So did Darren Collison. Both had 30 or more points, but it wasn’t enough to stop Blake Griffin, who was a monster with 47 points and 14 rebounds, which led to the Los Angeles Clippers’ 114-107 victory over the Indiana Pacers.

Rockets Snap Four-Game Home Losing Streak, Bounce Bucks 93-84
There is one cardinal rule that applies in the National Basketball Association, especially if you want to be a successful franchise: Win the majority of your home games.

That would be the case again on Saturday night as they visited Chicago and the United Center to take on the Bulls. While the game had the expected lead changes, it was a 3-pointer by Kyle Korver [...]
A Very Streaky Season
The Celtics had a 14-game one. The Spurs, Heat, and Mavericks have had 12-game ones. That’s right, streaks are in this season. Whether it’s winning a long string of games on the road, or blowing five games in a row with your star on the bench, every team wants to be a part of a [...]
