MIAMI -- Turns out, DeAndre Jordan does more than catch lobs. Sometimes he grabs offensive rebounds and scores to clinch games for the Los Angeles Clippers.And that was a most fitting ending on Friday night.Blake Griffin scored 20 points, Chris Paul and J.J. Redick each added 17 and the Clippers held on to beat the Miami Heat 102-98 for their fourth consecutive win. Jordan had a putback of a missed free throw by Paul with 7.7 seconds left to seal the win for Los Angeles.Thats what he does, Paul said. Rebound, get buckets, make shots.Jordan had 12 points and 19 rebounds, his big night coming a day after Heat center Hassan Whiteside said Jordan just catches lobs -- a comment he would insist Friday was misconstrued.I just wanted to come out here and get a win, Jordan said.Goran Dragic had 21 points and 11 assists, Justise Winslow scored 15 and Wayne Ellington added 13 points before leaving injured for Miami.Whiteside had 11 points and 17 rebounds, and wasnt on the floor for Jordans final rebound. Miami was going with a small lineup, guessing that Paul wouldnt miss from the line and trying to set up what it figured would be a 3-point shot for a tie.DJ took advantage of the size and then made the shot, which was even better, Clippers coach Doc Rivers said.The Clippers led by 16 in the first half. Miami got within six before Los Angeles went up 16 again in the third quarter -- then had to hang on.We lost this game in the first half, Dragic said.A three-point play by Josh Richardson with 13.2 seconds left got Miami within three, and the Heat forced a turnover on the Clippers ensuing inbounds pass. The Clippers didnt want to give up a 3 and fouled Dragic, who made both to make it 99-98.A terrific second half against a team thats obviously a championship-caliber team, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. But you have to play 48 minutes.TIP-INSClippers: Los Angeles had 60 points in the first half, 42 in the second. ... It was Pauls 800th regular-season game.

ESPN NFL Insider Mike Sando spends each Sunday with ESPN NFL analyst Jon Gruden and the Monday Night Football crew. This week, theyre in Charlotte for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Carolina Panthers matchup (ESPN, 8:30 p.m. ET). Here are some takeaways from Gruden on the Buccaneers.Jameis Winston is a great talent with all the tools to become the quarterback the Buccaneers sought with the first pick in the 2015 NFL draft. Winston is smart enough, tough enough and athletic enough to be a star in the NFL. Much of Winstons film is not just good, but borders on sensational. He is an exciting young player.There are still important hurdles for Winston to clear if he hopes to become as consistent as the Buccaneerrs need him to be.dddddddddddd A deeper look at the good and the bad sets up Winstons Monday Night Football debut.The goodMental side of the game: Winston is a smart quarterback. He can recognize, communicate and execute. Last year, when he was a rookie, Winston saw New Orleans show a bison blitz with the strongside linebacker and strong safety overloading the left side of his offensive line, and he recognized the problem right away and audibled into a stretch running play that gashed the defense. Winstons ability to take over the game from a mental standpoint is excellent. ' ' '
