– DeAndre Jordan played 38 minutes in this game, and he had five measly rebounds. How does that happen? He is 6-foot-11 and this past season he led the league in rebounding with a 13.6 average. He is averaging 9.3 this season through four games. Only one of Jordan’s five rebounds came on the defensive boards.

– If Reggie Bullock can come in and continue to hit bit 3-point baskets off the bench, that will be quite a coup for the Clippers. He scored 12 points – all on 3-pointers – and two of the baskets were in crucial moments.

– Not that anyone ever doubted the toughness of Chris Paul, but to have a triple-double with a mildly sprained left foot is truly amazing. That a 6-foot guard would get 10 rebounds under those circumstances, is even more so.

– It was good to see Blake Griffin follow a poor game against Sacramento with another stellar game. He had 31 points on 14 of 21 shooting. He also had nine rebounds, four assists and two blocks.

– The Clippers are still allowing their opponents too many open looks, but they seemed to cut down on them in this one. The Jazz shot 46.8 percent from the field, 37 percent (10 of 27) from 3-point range. One Jazz player not guarded closely enough was Gordon Hayward, who scored 27 points on 10 of 19 shooting, 5 of 12 from 3-point range.
