The most lethargic pace-of-play team in the league over the last 5 games has been the Clippers.The Rockets have played at the 2nd-most sluggish pace-of-play in the NBA this year, which should lead to decreased opportunities for the LA Clippers.The Clippers have been the 3rd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).The matchup vs. Houston may be a tough one for getting to the charity stripe; opposing starting SFs have attempted a mere 2.0 free throws per game over the last 10 games when the Rockets are away from home (2nd-least in the NBA).
