Last year, this would be a 25 point loss. This year, even without AD, we played a great game. The difference is defense. _________________ ¡Hala Madrid! |

welp, I said we'd come back in the 2nd half and indeed we did. It is always a good time to see the Rockets lose |

Nice bounce back game for Kuzma (23 points, 8 rbs) & Danny Green (20 points, 5 rbs, 4 steals). |

Very nice win. Second half d was much tighter, better energy...honestly rockets didnt impress too much they shoulda been up more in first half with how Lakers were playing
Regardless love the win. Great job! |

This game reminds me of the 2nd game we played the Cavaliers in the Q and broke their undefeated home streak in 2009. Down in the 1st half, we figure out how to D them up and complete lockdown 2nd half. Oh yea in that game Lamar Odom destroyed them too. |

Caruso and Dwight tried their best to help the Rockets win yet they still failed. |

We didn't play like crap. We just didn't hit shots. Our defense kept us close enough to take the lead when the shots started falling. Houston never could establish a big enough lead. |

We are lucky we didn’t have Rondo. The 2nd unit continues to play better without him. |

Houston is a bad matchup for Clippers, they doesn't have enough defensive guards to stop Harden and Westbrook which Lakers has plenty. |

If anything, this game showed rondo is important, we don’t win that OKC game without him either
AC struggles big time today |
