Clippers vs Rockets Key Matchups and Handicap
Rockets
Houston earned a 102-95 win on Tuesday night, but that box score deserves context. The Rockets shot 14-of-28 from three-point range, good for 50.0 percent. That is elite efficiency from beyond the arc.
Even with that hot shooting, Houston only won by seven points. Kevin Durant led the way with 26 points, and the Rockets leaned heavily on a short rotation. Durant, Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith Jr and Amen Thompson all logged more than 34 minutes.
Houston only used eight players in that game. In a quick turnaround rematch, that workload is something I pay attention to.

Clippers
Los Angeles actually took a one-point lead into halftime on Tuesday before the Rockets slowly pulled away in the second half.
Kawhi Leonard scored 24 points and the Clippers did an excellent job on the glass. Against the leagueโs best rebounding team, Los Angeles held a 17-10 edge on the offensive boards.
The bigger story is efficiency. The Clippers shot 8-of-30 from three-point range, just 26.7 percent. They also missed eight free throws. There is clear room for improvement on that side of the box score.
LA Clippers and Houston
This is where the handicap becomes simple for me. Houston shot 50 percent from three and won by seven. Los Angeles shot under 27 percent from three and missed eight free throws.
If both teams regress toward their normal shooting levels, the gap narrows. We recommended a play on the Clippers on Tuesday and I am comfortable going back to the same well.
The total has also dropped from 210.5 to 208.5. Given the defensive tone of Tuesdayโs game and the heavy minutes played by key Rockets, I lean under again.

How to Bet
This is a classic regression spot. When one team shoots 50 percent from deep and the other shoots under 27 percent, I expect some leveling out in the rematch.
