After losing a first half lead and losing to the Clippers in game 1, the Rockets practically do the same thing to the Clippers in game 2 winning 115-109. MVP runner-up James Harden had 32 points (15-15 from the charity stripe) and seven assists. Dwight Howard didn’t disappoint either tallying 24 points and rebounds. Blake Griffin went cold in the 4th period but managed to drop 34 points and 15 rebounds. Austin Rivers and Lester Hudson did a solid job backing up Chris Paul who missed his second straight game thanks to that hamstring injury. Doc tried a plethora of lineups and some were pretty successful. Even with that it’s not too much you can do when Harden get 15 free throws and makes them all.
