LA Clippers vs. Houston Rockets bottom line:
Diving into the game on Tuesday, the margins weren’t far apart as both teams made 36 shots. The difference was that the Rockets hit six additional 3-pointers while the Clippers missed eight free throws.
If LA can clean up its perimeter defense and be more efficient from the line, the game flips the opposite way.

Clippers Rockets Free Pick: Clippers +9
Here is my Clippers Rockets free pick.
In terms of playing back-to-back sets, the Clippers have struggled, going 1-6 in the second game while the Rockets are 3-4 in those circumstances.
Houston won the first game but failed to push the pace, so it’s inherent that they do it in this match, given the age of the Clippers.
Alperen Sengun will join teammate Kevin Durant at the All-Star Game getting the tap as the injury replacement for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Kawhi Leonard will represent his squad with the game at his home arena.
While the Rockets lead the league in rebounding, they failed to win the glass in the opening game, proving once again how much Steven Adams is missed. For LA to win, they’ll need to replicate that effort on Wednesday.
The game prior to (and after) the All-Star Break is considered one of the most difficult for teams as they struggle to focus. That led me to take the points and the Clippers because they have several vets who should lead their squad in this effort.
