OAKLAND, Calif. -- No technical fouls or flagrant fouls. No hard hits or out-of-the ordinary elbows. Not even a dust up or any extra chatter after the whistle. This time, the Golden State Warriors wore down the Los Angeles Clippers the old-fashioned way. David Lee had 22 points and 11 rebounds, Andrew Bogut grabbed 17 boards and the Warriors whipped the Clippers 111-92 Thursday night in the first game since the emerging Pacific Division rivals spirited Christmas meeting. "If our defence is switched on like it was tonight," Bogut said, "we have a chance to be a very good team." Stephen Curry scored 22 points and handed out seven assists, and Bogut added 14 points and three blocks to highlight Golden States dominating performance down low. The Warriors outrebounded the Clippers 53 to 34 and outscored them 66 to 22 in the paint. "Weve had some special nights, so its not like we are trying to reach for something we are not capable of doing," Warriors coach Mark Jackson said. "We are all well aware of it. What I liked about tonight was that we set the tone early and battled." Blake Griffin finished with 27 points, Darren Collison scored 22 and DeAndre Jordan grabbed 20 rebounds for Los Angeles, which had won four straight. The Clippers looked worn out after beating Washington on Wednesday night in Los Angeles, dropping to 10-4 since All-Star point guard Chris Paul has been sidelined with a separated right shoulder. The Warriors outscored the Clippers 26-11 in the third quarter to go ahead by 23 points. Los Angeles went just 1 for 15 from the floor in the period. "I dont think there was a chance for chippiness tonight," Clippers coach Doc Rivers said. "If anybody would have got chippy in this game, they would have been suspended for the year. Why would you be chippy tonight? Youre down by 30." Golden State improved to 2-1 against the Clippers this season, with the home team winning each time. The Warriors (28-19) also moved within four games of the Clippers (33-16) and percentage points of Phoenix (28-18) in the Pacific Division. The Warriors had lost six of nine entering the game after winning 10 in a row. Jackson had called out his team for playing down to its competition too often after a lacklustre loss to the Wizards on Tuesday night. Playing the Clippers was one matchup that Jackson didnt have to worry about his teams focus. The series has grown increasingly testy the past two seasons as both franchises have transformed from perennial losers into Western Conference contenders. That included Golden States win in Oakland on Christmas night, which featured two ejections, two flagrant fouls and three technical fouls. Emotions never escalated in the rematch. The Warriors took control before most of the announced sellout crowd 19,596 had settled into their seats. Bogut beat Griffin for a baseline alley-oop in the opening minutes and added a pair of blocks, and Harrison Barnes soared for two driving dunks during a run propelled by the second unit that put the Warriors ahead 48-29 with 8:25 remaining in the half. Los Angeles answered behind defence and dunks -- mostly by Griffin -- in its lone run of the game. The Clippers cut Golden States lead to 64-56 at the half, leaving most fans stunned and silent, but only for a moment. "The energy was bad. I just didnt really feel like I ever had that wind or that second gear," said Griffin, who was held to just three rebounds after getting guarded mostly by Bogut. The Warriors showed incredible ball movement and rebounding prowess to begin the third quarter on a 16-2 run that had all kinds of highlights. None of the big plays during the spurt received more roars than Boguts 20-foot jumper over Jordan with the shot clock about to expire. The Warriors big man shrugged and smiled at Jordan while backpedaling to the other end, part of a run that also turned the game into a laugher. "I wish we had it figured out," Lee said, "to do it every game." NOTES: The Warriors have won 15 of the last 17 against the Clippers in Oakland. ...

After struggling for three weeks to get in sync with his new receivers, Brady threw for 316 yards and two touchdowns in his best outing of the season for the unbeaten New England Patriots, who held off a furious Atlanta comeback to beat the Falcons 30-23 on Sunday night. New England improved to 4-0 for the first time since its near-perfect season in 2007. "We slugged it out," Brady said. "We came to Atlanta, which is a tough place to play and theyve got a very good team. Its nice to win and be 4-0." The Patriots built a 30-13 lead before the Falcons rallied. Atlanta had a chance to tie it up in the final minute, but Aqib Talib knocked away Matt Ryans fourth-down pass for Roddy White in the end zone with 36 seconds remaining. "Weve got to do a better job of finishing out the game," New England coach Bill Belichick said, "but we did a good job of putting ourselves in that position with a 17-point lead with 6 minutes to go in the game." The Patriots again played without star tight end Rob Gronkowski and receiver Danny Amendola, both left at home with injuries. But the Brady-led offence finally looked like itself after struggling a bit the first three games. New England seemed in control when LeGarrette Blount scored on a 47-yard run, and Brady threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to rookie Kenbrell Thompkins. Thompkins, an undrafted free agent, finished with six catches for 127 yards — nearly as much as the first three games of his career. "Hes an impressive young player," Brady said. "Its really rare to see that with a young player, to step in with confidence like that he has." Julian Edelman chipped in with 118 yards on seven receptions. "Were missing quite a few guys," Brady said, "so hopefully when we get them back, well be more efficient." Atlanta (1-3) dropped two games below .500 for the first time since 2007 despite a career night from Tony Gonzalez. He had 12 catches for 149 yards and a pair of touchdowns. "You get what you earn in the NFL," coach Mike Smith said. "Weve earned a 1-3 record through the first quarter of the season. Thats what we are." New England led just 13-10 before a wild final period. Blount stunned the Georgia Dome crowd with his burst throughh a gaping hole, cutting outside and dragging defenders into the end zone.dddddddddddd After Matt Bryants 45-yard field goal brought the Falcons to 20-13, Brady guided the Patriots on an 80-yard drive that took only five plays and barely 2 minutes. Edelman hauled in a 16-yard pass, followed by 44-yard reception that set up the touchdown throw to Thompkins in the left corner of the end zone, sending many of the Atlanta fans heading to the exits with nearly 10 minutes left. They nearly missed an epic comeback after Stephen Gostkowskis third field goal pushed the Patriots to their 17-point lead. Gonzalez hauled in an 11-yard touchdown pass, the Falcons recovered an onside kick, then drove for another field goal by Bryant. New England recovered a second onside kick, only to fumble a snap trying to convert on fourth down, turning it back over to the Falcons. Ryan completed a 49-yard pass to Julio Jones to put Atlanta in position to force overtime before a mostly empty stadium. The drive fell short, the Falcons bitten again by their season-long struggles in the red zone. Atlanta scored only one touchdown on six trips inside the 20. That included settling for a field goal on their first possession, when they had first-and-goal at the 6, and Smiths decision to go for it on fourth-and-2 from the 7. That failed when Ryan threw it behind White in the flats. "Were just not executing how we need to in the red zone," Smith said. "Were moving the ball well between the 20s. But were not ending with touchdowns. Youve got to score touchdowns in this league. Its an offensive league." New England got good production from its running game, especially on its first touchdown drive. Brady threw only twice on the 12-play, 75-yard possession, including a 1-yard touchdown pass to third-string tight end Matthew Mulligan. NOTES: Ryan completed 34 of 54 for 421 yards. ... The Falcons had won 14 in a row after losses. This is their first two-game losing streak since 2009. ... Atlanta, which faces the New York Jets in Week 5, has never lost three in a row under Smith. ... The Patriots rushed for 132 yards. Blount led with 64 yards on nine carries, while Ridley chipped in with 53 yards on 11 carries. ... In addition to breaking up Atlantas final pass, Talib also had an interception in the fourth quarter — his fourth of the season.
