(SportsNetwork.com) - The San Antonio Spurs will put their three-game winning streak on the line Saturday night when the Los Angeles Clippers come calling at AT&T Center. The Spurs won the first three during this six-game homestand. San Antonio will get visits from the Orlando Magic and Miami Heat before heading off of a nine- game road trip wrapped around the All-Star break. On Wednesday, the Spurs collected their third straight win with a 95-86 decision over the Charlotte Hornets. It was their ninth victory in the last 11 and they havent lost consecutive games since late December. Tim Duncan, who was named as a Western Conference All-Star on Thursday, posted his second straight double-double and five Spurs reached double figures in the win. Duncan had 12 points and 14 rebounds, while Tony Parker and Danny Green scored 17 and 16 points, respectively. Duncan and Green finished with three blocks and two steals apiece. The Spurs led by as many as 18 in the first half before taking a 55-38 cushion into the half. The Hornets got back in the game with a strong third quarter in which they held San Antonio to 4-of-21 shooting and 14 points. We went through a little dry spell in the third quarter, said Green. It seemed like there was a lid on the basket, but we kept moving, kept finding each other, and kept penetrating. Charlotte got within two, but Matt Bonner and Manu Ginobili, both of whom scored 10 points, hit consecutive 3s to jumpstart a 12-0 run. Duncan scored twice on the flurry that gave the hosts an 81-67 edge that all but sealed the outcome. The Clippers had a six-game winning streak snapped on Friday in a 108-103 road loss to the Anthony Davis-less New Orleans Pelicans. That was game two of an eight-game odyssey that includes stops in Brooklyn, Cleveland, Toronto, Oklahoma City and Dallas. Chris Paul, who was named a Western Conference All-Star reserve, finished with 24 points, Blake Griffin scored 19 and DeAndre Jordan contributed 12 points and 15 rebounds for the Clippers Sometimes the basketball gods say you shouldnt win the game, Clippers head coach Doc Rivers said. I thought tonight was one of those nights. Paul scored 10 points during a 12-0 swing to get Los Angeles within 95-94 with 5:07 remaining. With under two minutes to play, Eric Gordon knocked down a turnaround fadeaway shot and Dante Cunningham threw down a dunk to give the Pelicans a six-point lead and seal the win. Clippers guard JJ Redick returned after missing Wednesdays game with back spasms and scored 12 points The Spurs won both meetings this season, one in LA and one in San Antonio. The Spurs have won four straight against the Clippers and since late 2002, are 22-2 as the host in this series, including playoffs.

Nick Rimando Jersey . For the Bombers it has been a combination of things coming together at the most inappropriate moments in time. Quarterback, injuries, Canadian talent or depth and leadership are all issues. Trust me when I say being a Bomber is no fun right now in a city that embraces football the way Winnipeg does. While Buck Pierce will be getting another shot, I think Max Hall does deserve another opportunity. http://www.soccerusafansshop.com/Joe-Cor...America-Jersey/.
