Griffin, Clippers resume trek with Bucks

Feb 14, 2011 - 3:44 PM (Sports Network) - Blake Griffin and the Los Angeles Clippers continue their 11-game road trip tonight against the Milwaukee Bucks at the Bradley Center.

The Clippers haven't fared so well on the Grammy Awards road tour, falling to 1-5 on the trek following Sunday's 98-93 loss in Toronto. Griffin had 21 points and 15 rebounds, while Baron Davis recorded a 20-point, seven-assist effort for Los Angeles, which was coming off Friday's loss in Cleveland that ended the Cavs' NBA-record 26-game losing streak.

"I missed some easy shots. I have to do a better job distributing the ball," Griffin said after the loss to the Raptors.

Brian Cook and Ryan Gomes scored 17 and 14 points, respectively, in defeat.

Los Angeles will also visit the Timberwolves, Thunder, Hornets and Lakers on the excursion, and is only 4-20 as the guest in 2010-11.

Meanwhile, the Bucks will continue a four-game homestand this evening and started the residency with Saturday's 103-97 loss to Indiana.

Carlos Delfino had 21 points off the bench and Keyon Dooling scored 13 points in a reserve role for Milwaukee, which has lost three straight and seven of its last eight games. Brandon Jennings and Ersan Ilyasova both had 10 points, and Andrew Bogut posted nine and 12 rebounds.

"We went double-digit possessions without getting a basket, I believe it was, maybe even 12 possessions," Bucks coach Scott Skiles said. "You're not going to win too many games doing that; at the same time, we broke down a little bit in transition defense, and they went on a run. We tried to take a couple timeouts, tried to regroup a little bit, but just weren't able to get anything going."

Indiana used a 14-0 run in the fourth quarter to put the Bucks away. The loss snapped Milwaukee's six-game overall winning streak versus the Pacers, and a five-game winning streak to Indiana at the Bradley Center.

The Bucks will also host Denver and Minnesota, and are 12-12 in Brew City. On the injury front for Milwaukee, guard Chris Douglas-Roberts (flu) and forward Corey Maggette (back) are listed as questionable for tonight. Bogut had recorded a block in 23 straight games before coming up empty versus Indy.

Los Angeles beat Milwaukee, 105-98, on Jan. 31 this season at Staples Center, as Griffin led the charge with 32 points and 11 rebounds that day. The Clippers have won 11 of the past 15 games in this series.

Milwaukee, however, is 10-5 in the previous 15 as the host.
