After Action Report
The Clippers handled the Rockets 127-114. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Clippers' outside barrage was a constant threat; Rockets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Clippers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
