After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets handled the Clippers 123-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
