Five takeaways from the Clippers' 108-105 win over the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday:
1. Though the Clippers have one exhibition game left Friday night against the Portland Trail Blazers at Staples Center, Chris Paul and Blake Griffin clearly are ready for the start of the regular season.
The Clippers' two All-Stars combined for 69 of the Clippers' points in the win.
Paul had 34 points, nine assists and five rebounds and Griffin had 35 points and seven rebounds.
2. Matt Barnes still can't find his shot. After missing all five of his shots – all four of his three-pointers – Barnes is shooting just 8.3% (three-for-36) from the field, 4.5% (one-for-22) from three-point range.
3. Yes, Clippers center DeAndre Jordan sat out the game against the Suns, but Los Angeles still needs to clean up in the rebounding department.
The Clippers were out-rebounded by the smaller Suns, 43-35.
4. Jared Cunningham improved his chances of making the Clippers' roster as a backup guard.
Cunningham had just three points and two assists against the Suns, but Clippers Coach Doc Rivers liked his defense and activity.
5. Rivers still will have to find out who'll be his backup small forward.
Reggie Bullock and Chris Douglas-Roberts are vying for the role behind Barnes.
But neither player has stood out.
