Energized by the prospect of taking on the Big Three, the Los Angeles Clippers came out attacking and never let up.

Blake Griffin had 24 points and 14 rebounds for his 30th double-double, and the Clippers surprised Miami 111-105 Wednesday night, ending the Heat's 13-game road winning streak.

Eric Gordon added 26 points and Baron Davis had 20 points and nine assists for the Clippers, who led virtually the entire game against the NBA's second-best team. It was just the 13th win of the season for Los Angeles.

"I'm sure they were a lot more hyped up for that Christmas Day game against the Lakers and not us," Griffin said.

"Beat the Heat!" the sellout crowd stood and chanted in the closing seconds.

"It's a good win for us," Davis said in a muted locker room. "It's not like we have done anything. We still have to get a lot better to improve our record."

Dwyane Wade scored 31 points, LeBron James added 27 and Chris Bosh had 26 points and 13 rebounds for the Heat, who had also won nine in a row overall.
