Los Angeles, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Blake Griffin scored 18 points, DeAndre Jordan recorded a double-double and the Los Angeles Clippers breezed past the Detroit Pistons, 113-91, at Staples Center on Monday. Jordan finished with 16 points and 15 rebounds while Jordan Farmar added 15 points for LA, which bounced back from consecutive losses to the Wizards and Bucks over the weekend. Coming home and closing a team out is a really good feeling, Jordan said. After losing two games in a row it feels like you lost 10. Chris Paul committed six turnovers in each of those setbacks but returned to his sure-handed ways, recording 11 points and eight assists while only turning it over once. The Pistons, on the other hand, coughed it up 18 times and trailed by as many as 27 as their two-game winning streak came to a crashing halt. Jodie Meeks netted a game-high 20 points while Andre Drummond donated 18 points and 13 rebounds in a losing cause. We couldnt get stops, Pistons head coach Stan Van Gundy said. They tore our defense apart. Theyre a good offensive team. They were at a quicker pace than we were defensively. The Clippers scored the final seven points of the opening quarter for a 29-27 lead, and they went ahead by double digits, 47-36, when Jordans alley-oop dunk capped an 11-2 run in the middle stages of the second. LA was ahead, 55-44, at halftime and stretched the lead to as many as 26 in the third quarter. Matt Barnes hit back-to-back 3-pointers at one point and was fouled on the second one. His free throw made it a 73-53 game, and the Clippers led by a comfortable 86-63 margin going into the fourth. Game Notes Griffin, who also pulled down seven rebounds and handed out seven assists, moved past Danny Manning and sits fifth on the Clippers all-time scoring list with 7,122 points ... The Clippers have won the last eight meetings ... The Clippers shot 53.8 percent from the floor and made half of their 24 3-point attempts.

If it wasnt for a late goal from Kekuta Manneh, the Whitecaps would have left California empty-handed. Despite playing with a one-man advantage for 77 minutes, Vancouver needed Mannehs goal in the 81st minute, to forge a 1-1 tie with Chivas USA, and salvage a point in front of 6,684 at StubHub Center. Vancouver (1-0-1) played its first road game after opening the season Mar. 8 with a 4-1 victory over the New York Red Bulls at B.C. Place. "There are a lot of disappointed people in this locker room, including myself," said defender Jay DeMerit, the Whitecaps captain. "Any time you go one man up on the road, its a great opportunity to pick up three points." Chivas USA (1-0-1) had to play with 10 men after midfielder Agustin Pelletieri received a red card in the 13th minute for tripping Pedro Morales at the midfield stripe. Erick Torres put Chivas USA ahead in the 45th minute. Mauro Rosales dispossessed Nigel Reo-Coker at midfield and passed to Torres, whose 23-yard shot deflected off DeMerits right thigh and inside the leeft post.dddddddddddd "I think we took our foot off the gas and thought it might be easy playing against 10," Vancouver coach Carl Robinson said. "We werent working at 100 per cent. It was important that we kept a calm head in the second half and attacked." Manneh, who replaced Reo-Coker in the 60th minute, used his right instep to deflect Darren Mattocks cross from the left side of the penalty area into the net from 13 yards. "He had a big effect on the game," Robinson said of Manneh, a 19-year-old forward from Gambia. "Hes bright, hes direct and hes pacy." Goalkeeper David Ousted kept Chivas USA from scoring in the 85th minute. Ousted leaped to his right to catch Matthew Fondys 8-yard header off Rosales corner kick. Vancouvers offence did not take a shot until the 61st minute and did not have a shot on goal until the 70th. Against New York, the Whitecaps amassed 14 shots, 10 on goal. "Its a good learning experience for us," DeMerit said. "We knew we came out flat. We didnt really get at them, as far as trying to create. The mentality on the road needs a bit more energy than we gave."
