After Action Report
The Clippers downed the Rockets 118-102. The Clippers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Clippers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
