Miscellany: The Clippers snapped a nine-game road losing streak Monday night by defeating the Knicks, 103-94 . . . Before Monday night, Kaman and Maggette had missed four games apiece because of flu-like symptoms, and coach Mike Dunleavy missed the game against the Knicks with the same illness . . . Thomas didn't play in the second half Monday night (back spasms) . . . There's been speculation that veteran point guard Cassell could end up with the Celtics as a backup, but the teams don't seem to match up for a trade.
