After Action Report

The Rockets demolished the Clippers 108-77. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Clippers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Clippers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
