LOS ANGELES -- When Blake Griffin soared past Stephen Curry and hammered home his one-handed rebound of Danny Grangers missed jumper, the slam emphasized everything thats so impressive about the Los Angeles Clippers nine-game winning streak. The Clippers are on this roll against good teams, at a perfect time for their playoff preparations -- and just like Griffins mind-blowing dunk, theyre doing it with style. Griffin had 30 points and 15 rebounds, Granger added 18 points off the bench, and the Clippers surged past the Golden State Warriors 111-98 Wednesday night. Chris Paul had 16 points, 12 assists and eight rebounds for the Clippers, who split their four-game season series against their Pacific Division rivals with an impressive finish to a tight game. "This is the time of year when you want to be playing your best," Griffin said. "Our fight has been great. Whoever is on the court ... up 10 or down 10, I think weve come to a point where it doesnt really matter. We stick together and try to pull it out." Griffin was in top form on both ends of the court, punctuating his latest monster performance with that rebound slam with 8:18 to play. The four-time All-Star has scored 20 points in 24 consecutive games, the second-longest streak in the NBA this season. Los Angeles has the third-longest winning streak in club history and the teams best record after 66 games (46-20), but the Clippers dont seem satisfied by their five-game lead over Golden State in the division standings. "Its impressive, because for the most part, weve been playing good teams," Granger said after his fifth game with the Clippers. "You really want to peak at this time going into the playoffs, because if a team is hitting on all cylinders, you look up and youre in the finals." Klay Thompson scored 26 points and David Lee had 20 for the Warriors, whose five-game winning streak ended with their fourth straight loss to the Clippers at Staples Center. Curry had just 13 points and 11 assists before sitting out the final minutes. Golden State got an impressive game from Thompson, but its normally reliable bench went 3 for 25, struggling mightily for most of the second half. "Weve been playing great basketball against some good teams, and we thought we could come in here and play very well and get a win," Curry said. "It didnt turn out that way, but one loss isnt going to stop us. Were going to continue that momentum, that rhythm." Los Angeles held Golden State to just one field goal in a 9:40 stretch spanning the final two quarters. The Warriors stayed in it with defence and free throws, but Darren Collison scored six quick points down the stretch in the fourth quarter, and Matt Barnes 3-pointer with 1:25 to play essentially sealed the win. The California clubs completed their series with another demonstration of the reasons they might have the West Coasts best current rivalry, although both teams agree they need playoff stakes to develop true enmity. "All four games this year have been very competitive games," Lee said. "Both teams took care of their homecourt. I think were two pretty evenly matched teams that have big plans for the post-season, so we look forward to seeing what happens the rest of the season. These last three games weve played felt like playoff-style games." Granger kept the Clippers in it during a rocky first-half stretch, making his first six shots without a miss in about 11 minutes. Los Angeles rolled off a 15-3 run to close the third quarter with an 84-79 lead, scoring nine straight points capped by Pauls 3-pointer on a crosscourt assist from Griffin with 0.1 seconds left. NOTES: Paul missed eight of his first nine shots and struggled all night under tight defence from Thompson. Paul went back out on the Staples Center court after the game with an assistant coach to work on his shot after his 5-for-15 effort. ... Clippers G Jamal Crawford sat out for the fifth time in six games with a strained left calf. Jared Dudley returned from a three-game absence with back spasms, but played just one minute. ... Griffin grabbed his 3,000th career rebound late in the first half. He is the third player in NBA history to have 6,000 points, 3,000 boards and 1,000 assists in his first four full NBA seasons while also making 50 per cent of his shots, joining Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Charles Barkley.

Fake Air Max Trainers . The No. 23 seed at the first Grand Slam event of the tennis season has worked out all the details, from his training regime right down to where hes going to eat dinner.From Tom Brady to Cam Newton to Ben Roethlisberger, here are the top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL. 10. Matt Ryan (Atlanta Falcons) Matt Ryan is one of Atlantas great QBs Great for the fantasy players, Matty Ice is one of the best quarterbacks Atlanta fans have ever seen. Julio Jones had 136 receptions and 1,871 yards receiving last year. He must have had a pretty good quarterback to be able to do that. 9. Tony Romo (Dallas Cowboys) Tony Romo will be hoping for an injury-free season Romo gets labelled a lot as a choker because he has not led the Cowboys to the promised land, but he is still one of the best quarterbacks Dallas has ever seen. The biggest problem Romo has is his injuries which he really shouldnt be having with the offensive line hes playing behind. Still, Im hoping this year will be one in which he plays all his games and remains injury-free.8. Carson Palmer (Arizona Cardinals) Carson Palmer let himself down in the post-season Sure, it helps when you have Larry Fitzgerald on the team, but Palmer was able to use his brain to distribute the ball to other weapons on the Cards in John Brown and Michael Floyd. He let himself down in the post-season, throwing six interceptions. If he didnt, he probably would be higher on the list.7. Drew Brees (New Orleans Saints) Drew Brees threw for 31 TDs last season Brees lost his biggest weapon in Jimmy Graham last year to Seattle, but he still managed to throw for nearly 4,900 yards and 31 TDs. Its true that the offense is mainly centred around him and he led with passing attempts per game, but he is one of the games great quarterbacks.6. Ben Roethlisberger (Pittsburgh Steelers) Ben Roethlisberger will have to cope with the suspension of Martavis Bryant The great thing about Big Ben is his bullet arm and his movement around the pocket, although his need to be Superman makes him somewhat injury-prone. Also, the fact that Martavis Bryant is out suspended wont help his numbers.5. Eli Manning (New York Giants) Eli Manning is a proven winner Yes, hes probably not going to help you fantasy-wise because of the interceptions he throws, but get this: hes a proven winner (two Super Bowls), hes got a great weapon in Odell Beckham Jr, and he doesnt get injured.4. Russell Wilson (Seattle Seahawks) Russell Wilson at his very best Hes a model of consistency in terms of completions and getting it right.dddddddddddd. Thats what you need - someone who can be complete. He had a huge year last year, throwing for 4,000 yards and 34 TDs. And hes so young.3. Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay Packers) Aaron Rodgers shows what he can do Rodgers consistently gives his wide receivers confidence when hes in the pocket and hes not as slow as people think when hes on the run (he had his best season rushing with 344 yards in 2015). Oh, and hes intelligent and durable.2. Cam Newton (Carolina Panthers) Cam Newton runs in for a four-yard touchdown Can destroy defences with both his legs and his arm. Oh, and he took Carolina to the Super Bowl without any receiving help. I look forward to seeing him when Kelvin Benjamin returns next year. His throwing stats can only rise, right?1. Tom Brady (New England Patriots) Tom Brady will return in Week 5 Yes, I know that he didnt win the Super Bowl and hes not going to be there for the first four games of the new NFL season. But lets see how much better the Pats get when their biggest weapon gets back into the huddle in Week 5. Also See: NFL Video Rookies guide NFL on Sky Sports Pundits ' ' '
