SALT LAKE CITY - The Utah Jazz stood toe-to-toe with the Los Angeles Clippers for 43 minutes Wednesday night despite having lost 12 straight to the team formally known as Lob City.The final five minutes of the fourth quarter extended that streak to 13.Jamal Crawford scored 21 points and the Clippers used a fourth-quarter rally to beat the Jazz on the road 94-89. The 13 consecutive wins against Utah is a franchise-record against a single ballclub.Weve been in these situations so much that, down the stretch, we know who were going to go to and how were going to play, Clippers point guard Chris Paul said. We just pulled it together when we needed to.Crawford knocked down four 3-point baskets in the win, and Paul scored 21 points and dished out six assists. Crawford scored 14 in the first half after scoring 23 against the Nuggets on Monday.The Jazz led 83-81 late in the fourth quarter, but the Clippers went on a 9-2 run highlighted by Blake Griffins tip-in and a 17-foot jumper from Paul to pull away. Griffin finished with 17 points.We didnt get it going offensively tonight, not in a great rhythm, Clippers coach Doc Rivers said. Give them credit. I thought us they defended us very well. Very well prepared. We just hung in there. We got key stops and stops were the difference in the game for us.Even if were struggling, we believe we can get stops. Just keep getting stops. Dont worry about it if we miss shots. Just keep getting stops. And I thought tonight was another example of that.Enes Kanter scored 21 points and grabbed 11 rebounds in the loss, while Derrick Favors added 18 points and nine rebounds.The Jazz led 50-49 at halftime thanks to a 55.6 field goal percentage and just four turnovers. They held Griffin, who entered averaging 22.8 points per game, to just eight points in the first 24 minutes. Griffin, however, scored seven of the Clippers final nine points to help cement the victory.Yeah, its frustrating, Favors said. We played hard the first, second, third quarter and fourth quarter played good, too. But missed a couple shots here and there, couple calls didnt go our way and the Clippers made tough shots.(We need) to keep up the energy. Keep up the effort. Execute on the offensive end and get dialed in on the defensive end.TIP-INSJazz: Trey Burke, Dante Exum and Rudy Gobert were announced as participants in the Rising Stars Challenge during All-Star weekend on Wednesday. ...

Devin Bush Jersey . -- Rory McIlroy birdied his last two holes Thursday for a 7-under 63 to take the lead after one round of the Honda Classic.Ivory Coast, Greece meet in crucial Group C finale (Live on TSN Radio 1050, TSN Radio 690 and TEAM Radio 1410 at 4pm et/1pm pt) The Ivory Coast and Greece will meet in a crucial Group C match on Tuesday at the Estadio Castelao with a spot in the knockout round on the line. Les Elephants got their group-stage campaign off to a flying start with a 2-1 victory over Japan, but suffered a setback on Thursday with a 2-1 loss to group-leaders Colombia at the Estadio Nacional in Brasilia. The Ivory Coast managed to keep Colombia off the score sheet in the first half, but they couldnt hold them off in the second half as goals from James Rodriguez and Juan Fernando Quintero scored to lift Los Cafeteros to the victory. Colombia struck for the opener in the 64th minute as a corner kick from Juan Guillermo Cuadrado was expertly nodded into the top left corner of the net by Rodriguez. Colombia doubled its advantage in the 70th minute following a giveaway from the Ivory Coast in the center of the park. Gutierrez advanced the ball and slid a well-weighted pass into the path of Quintero, who slotted a left-footed shot past the on-rushing Boubacar Barry. Ivory Coast pulled one back just three minutes later. It was Gervinho who did the honors, capping a weaving run from the left flank by pumping a right- footed shot past Colombia goalkeeper David Ospina at the near post. But it wasnt enough as Les Elephants could not find an equalizer. "We didnt deserve to lose, I feel a draw would have been fair," Ivory Coast coach Sabri Lambouchi said. "We made a few untimely errors and paid a heavy price.ddddddddddddIm not going to get too carried away with what went on, there are only some small things to iron out ahead of the next game. Well now go back to our camp and get plenty of rest, because well need to beat Greece by a big margin. I cant see us qualifying any other way." Greece, meanwhile, is coming off a scoreless draw against Japan in Natal at the Estadio das Dunas on Thursday. A win for the Greeks would keep them alive for a spot in the round-of-16 with four points, but they could still go home if Japan beats Colombia earlier in the day. The run of play in Thursdays affair was even until the 38th minute when Greece had Kostas Katsouranis sent off for a second caution, which came by way of a sliding challenge on Makoto Hasebe. But the Greeks almost took the lead shortly after when Vasilis Torosidis took a failed clearance and hammered a shot on goal, but goalkeeper Eiji Kawashima was equal to the task, turning the attempt out of play to deny the Roma man. "We struggled to even get close to the Japanese box, particularly in the first half. Thats why I feel we played really well in the second 45 minutes," Greek head coach Fernando Santos said. "We thought Japan might change their style and play more long balls, rather than always playing short passes. We now need to win our next game because Cote dIvoire have three points and weve just one. We need to find a way to put the Ivorians under pressure. I hope that everything turns out like Euro 2004, when Greece also needed to win their last [group] game and ended up going through."
