Los Angeles Clippers vs. Houston Rockets – October 21, 2018

The Los Angeles Clippers will host Chris Paul and the Houston Rockets only a few days into the 2018-19 NBA season. This game was actually announced a couple of days ago when the first week of nationally televised games was released.

This matchup was… interesting last season, to say the least. While there likely won’t be any secret locker room attacks, the game should still be fun. The Clippers should actually be healthy for this game since it happens within the first week. (Don’t worry, I knocked on wood) Patrick Beverley and Avery Bradley should be an interesting defensive matchup against the Rockets’ Chris Paul and James Harden.

This will be a very solid early litmus test for the team and the whole nation can watch on NBATV and get an idea of the depth that the Clips have.
