Without DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin inside, the ClippersAndrew Ladd Jersey were forced to shoot jumpers. The Sacramento Kings were on the perimeter contesting shots and disrupting their looks. DeMarcus Cousins had 19 points and 13 rebounds, Omri Casspi added 17 points and the Kings stopped Los Angeles' 10-game winning streak with a 110-103 victory on Saturday night. ''It's a big win for us,'' http://www.officialjetsonlinestore.com/Womens_Youth_Blake_Wheeler_JerseyCousins said. ''We're still making a lot of mistakes as a team and still having a lot of ups and downs this season, so we're just trying to find that consistency.'' Rudy Gay added 18 points and Collison had 17. Casspi went 5 for 8 from 3-point range for the Kings. J.J. Redick scored 22 points, hitting five 3-pointers, and reserve Jamal Crawford added 20 points for the Clippers,http://www.officialjetsonlinestore.com/Womens_Youth_Bobby_Hull_Jersey who were tied with the idle Spurs for longest active win streak in the NBA. Chris Paul, who finished with 15 points and five fouls, hit two free throws that drew the Clippers to 104-101 with a minute left. Rajon Rondo turned the ball over on a bad pass, but his former Celtics teammate Paul Pierce tripped and missed a potential tying 3-pointer for Los Angeles. Gay grabbed the rebound, got fouled and made the first before missing the second. ''I will take that 10 Nick Leddy Jerseytimes out of 10,'' Paul said, backing Pierce's attempt. Cole Aldrich dunked to get the Clippers to 105-103 before they fouled former Clipper Darren Collison. He made both for a 107-103 lead. Pierce's inbounds pass was intercepted by Rondo, who got fouled and hit both free throws, helping the Kings improve to 7-12 on the road. ''They played great,'' Paul said. ''We knew they were a high-scoring team and http://www.officialislandersstore.com/Womens_Youth_Nikolay_Kulemin_Jerseywe never slowed them down.'' Aldrich had 19 points and 10 rebounds in his second start for the Clippers, who never led in the second half. ''Chris Paul not playing a lot in the first half kind of gave us some confidence, and they never got the great shots that they normally get,'' Kings coach George Karl said. ''Our guards worked harder tonight than I think I've seen all year.'' Sacramento twice led by nine in the fourth before Aldrich's late scoring burst briefly rallied Los Angeles.
