Game 14 - Nets @ Clippers - Monday, January 16, 3:30 p.m.
Chris Paul is questionable and likely out of the Nets final game on their four-game west coast road trip. For the Nets, it's another piece of luck. In Denver, they missed Ty Lawson and in Phoenix, they missed Steve Nash. It worked out once, didn't once.
