After Action Report
The Clippers outlasted the Rockets 118-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Clippers lately; Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
