After Action Report

The Clippers handled the Rockets 113-99. The better team simply showed up tonight. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
