After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Rockets blew the doors off the Clippers 114-93. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately; Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Clippers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 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.
  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
