The Houston Rockets will play host to the Los Angeles Clippers at their home arena of Toyota Center this Tuesday (Feb. 10) evening in the first of two tilts in a home-and-home series for the Rockets with the Clippers this week. In it, Houston will be looking to build on the momentum they established with a hard-fought win over arguably the best team in the league earlier this week.
On the other side of the ball court, the Clippers are on the hunt to extend their current win streak against other Western Conference foes. This ought to be a Rockets win with Houston the better team in terms of record and talent. But Los Angeles is still a dangerous team, as their current streak attests.
