After Action Report
The Rockets buried the Clippers 106-82. The Clippers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Rockets. Clippers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Clippers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- 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.
