CLIPPERS 118 ROCKETS 107...CP3 and HARDEN go PPV but the CLIPS get the "W"...LOGO WATCH on the CLIPS Team Charter on a Motel Swing #CLIPPERnation #LOBcity #CLIPSgang #TeamDonaldSterling

The Houston Rockets jumped out the LA Clipper early with that "Playing in front of the Home Folks and Tickets Left at Will Call" Adrenaline Rush. The Clips though stayed the course after being down 33-23 after one was down 61-58 at the break. These are far from those LA Sports Arena/Donald Sterling at the Playboy Mansion Clippers...far from it!

Behind 30 points and waiting on a dozen tables from Point God of Jordan Brand CP3...the Clips strike in the 2nd half. Leading 88-84 after three frames the Clips defensively took apart the Rockets methodically and cruise to a 118-107 "W". Rockets Leading man James Harden had a game-high 32 points on 9 of 22 shooting. The Rockets were without "Dwight of Three Stripes" Howard and the Clips in the paint took full advantage of it. DeAndre Jordan added 20 points and twelve boards while Jamal 206 Crawford went for 22. "Game Night with Blake" left in the 1st frame with Back Spasms.

The Rockets just didn't have enough in the paint without Dwight to make things happen late. Chandler Parsons added 28 points and grabbed nine boards with Omer Asik doing his best Dwight Impersonation going double double with 12 points and eleven boards. Red Nation committed 19 turnovers and was -15 from the Arc.

Clippers move to 52-22 and two games ahead of the Rocket in the 3rd slot. The Rockets fall to 49-23 as they lead the Rip City Blazers by just three games for the #4 slot in the West.
