Two against the Rockets

Less than a week after playing the Warriors, LA will play one of their two remaining games against the Houston Rockets. With Blake Griffin gone, don’t expect the same fireworks that we had all hoped for after the infamous tunnel incident.

However, with Austin Rivers now back and playing and DeAndre Jordan sticking around through the trade deadline, we still may get some bad blood between the two.

Then, on March 15th, the teams play their last meeting of the regular season in Houston. Getting a win in at least one of these would be great, especially considering this would likely be a first round match-up if the Clippers do make it into the playoffs.
