After Action Report
The Clippers rolled past the Rockets 132-77. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- 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.
