LOS ANGELES (AP) - The Los Angeles Clippers made a defensive stand against the Indiana Pacers that established a franchise record for fewest points allowed in a game. Even coach Mike Dunleavy made an unexpected defensive stop against his own son.
Corey Maggette scored 20 points and Elton Brand added 17 points and 12 rebounds in an 87-64 rout of the Indiana Pacers on Saturday night. But the injury-riddled Clippers didn't need much offense against a team that shot 35.7 percent from the field.
"This is a great record for us, especially at this time," Brand said. "Some of the guys that log a lot of minutes got some rest tonight. And when we can put that type of defense and intensity together for a full game, we are going to be hard to beat."
