NBA Scores and Results on Nov. 8

LOS ANGELES (Sporting Alert) -- J.J. Redick scored 30 points on 11 for 13 shooting and Chris Paul collected another double-double in the Los Angeles Clippers' 106-102 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday.

Redick has been struggling to get going in games, but he never stopped believing in himself.

"I'm a positive person and my glass is always half-full," he told reporters after the game. "I knew I would start making some shots.

"I never got too discouraged, but frustrated for sure."

Paul grabbed 22 points and 11 assists and Blake Griffin added 23 points and six rebounds in the win for the home side, which improved to 3-1 at STAPLES Center.

Clippers (4-2) head coach Doc Rivers handed Jamal Crawford a starting place on the day over Matt Barnes, and the shooting guard hit 3 for 5 from three-point range and finished with 20 points in the contest.

Damian Lillard paced the Trail Blazers (3-3) with 25 points, eight assists and seven rebounds, while LaMarcus Aldridge supported well with 21 points and 10 boards in the defeat.

"They came out in the second half with a lot more energy and were more active and picked it up and played at a different level," Lillard said.

"Redick was the difference. We should have defended him tighter but he made it tough on us when he started making shots."

Robin Lopez scored 19 points and seven rebounds and Wesley Mattews added 14 points for Portland

Both teams ended the third quarter locked at 79-79, but the Clippers opened up an eight-point gap to take a 96-88 lead with 5:33 left on the clock.

Portland made a 7-0 run and trimmed the lead to 100-102 with 1:09 to go in the game, but Paul and Crawford each knocked down free throws to earn the victory.
