Clippers vs Rockets Preview

The Clippers improved to 7-3 on Monday, besting the Toronto Raptors 98-88 at home.

Forward Kawhi Leonard, who last year led the Raptors to their first NBA title before departing in free agency, had the worst outing of his young Clippers career, shooting 2-of-11 for 12 points and committing 9 turnovers.

While Leonard wasn’t effective as a scorer, he found other ways to impact the game, finishing with 11 rebounds, 9 assists, 3 steals.

“They [made] me better tonight,” Leonard said, according to ESPN. “As soon as I walked across half court, they were trying to get the ball out of my hands, sending an extra defender. It’s going to [make] my teammates better. [Opponents are] going to do it at times in the playoffs and regular season, and they are going to knock down the open shot. That’s what wins games: open shots.

“We came out with the win, and they did a great job on me tonight. … But I’m glad they did. It [made] me better, and it’s going to [make] my teammates better as well.”

Clippers reserve guard Lou Williams scored a game-high 21 points on 7-of-15 shooting. Montrezl Harrell, Williams’ pick-and-roll partner off the bench, scored 14 to go with 11 rebounds and 3 blocks.

“It was fun,” Leonard said, per ESPN. “It’s even better coming out with a win. My teammates made shots. It wasn’t one of those nights for me.”

He added: “It’s just fun being able to compete against guys you were with last year.”

The Rockets are also 7-3, most recently besting the New Orleans Pelicans 122-116 in Louisiana on Monday.

Houston guard James Harden dropped 19 of his 39 points in the fourth quarter, which included two-minute stretch in which he scored 13 consecutive points.

“It’s go time,” Harden said, according to The Associated Press. “The fourth quarter is winning time, so you’ve got to be more aggressive and make plays whenever they come to you, whether it’s my shot or getting to the basket, shooting my floater or making the right play.”

The Rockets were clinging to a four-point lead when Harden’s flurry pushed the advantage to 110-93. He finished with 9 assists, 4 rebounds, and 2 steals.

“It’s what he does,” Houston head coach Mike D’Antoni said, per The Associated Press. “It shouldn’t have been (just a four-point lead). We have to close games out. We have to play better. We have to play smart, and tonight I didn’t think we did. Good enough to win? OK, but that’s not what we want to be.”
