After Action Report
The Rockets handled the Clippers 109-97. The better team simply showed up tonight. Rockets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Clippers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
