THE Los Angeles Clippers, for decades synonymous with long losing streaks, broke a 38-year-old franchise record with their 12th consecutive victory on Friday, beating the Sacramento Kings 97-85.
The current streak includes victories over some of the league's worst teams - New Orleans, Charlotte, Toronto, Detroit, Phoenix and Sacramento - although the Clippers do have wins over some of the best teams this season, too.
Chris Paul had 24 points and 13 assists and Blake Griffin had 21 points and 13 rebounds for the Clippers, who have had 20 double-digit losing streaks.
The Chicago Bulls beat the New York Knicks for the second time this season, 110-106, in a foul-filled game that saw New York coach Mike Woodson, Carmelo Anthony and two other players ejected.

Golden State's David Lee had 23 points, 11 rebounds and a career-high 11 assists and Stephen Curry set a career high with eight 3-pointers as the Warriors extended the Charlotte Bobcats' losing streak to 14 games with a 115-100 victory.
Milwaukee's Monta Ellis scored five of his 27 points in overtime to lead the Bucks past the Boston Celtics 99-94.
