After Action Report

The Clippers took care of the Rockets 122-111. Clippers' scorers couldn't be contained. The Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Clippers; fresh off a statement win, the Clippers stayed locked in. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
