The Los Angeles Clippers ( 43 - 24 ) defeated the host Houston Rockets ( 34 - 34 ) 122 - 106 , Wednesday evening at Toyota Center . The Rockets came into this game winners of four of their last five games and half a game ahead of the eighth place Dallas Mavericks , while the Clippers came in losers of three of their last four , but just a few wins away from clinching a playoff spot . However , each team played as if they came in with the other 's streak , as the struggling Clippers trounced the cruising Rockets . The Clippers managed to pour in 72 first - half points , which is the most points the Rockets have given up in a first half all season . The Clippers started out shooting very well from deep , with 10 made three - pointers in the first half but cooled down in the second half , finishing the game 12 - 30 from long range . DeAndre Jordan was a monster inside as he tallied 23 points ( 8 - 8 FG , 7 - 13 FT ) , 16 rebounds , two blocked shots , one assist and one steal , as he completely shut - down his counterpart , Dwight Howard . J.J. Redick chipped in 25 points ( 7 - 15 FG , 5 - 9 3Pt , 6 - 6 FT ) and three assists , in 32 minutes , while Chris Paul played the maestro , with 15 points , 16 assists , four rebounds and two steals , in 32 minutes . The Clippers shot an incredible 57 percent from the field , largely thanks to Chris Paul 's 16 assists , which accounted for more than half of the team 's 31 assists on the game . The Rockets trailed the whole length of the game , however they did mount a run in the last few minutes to cut a 21 - point deficit to an 11 - point deficit with four minutes left but could not finish the job down the stretch . James Harden led his team as he tallied 33 points ( 11 - 23 FG , 5 - 10 3Pt , 6 - 8 FT ) , along with eight assists , five rebounds , one steal and one block , but also tallied eight turnovers , in 44 minutes . Michael Beasley had another strong game off the bench as he chipped in 16 points ( 7 - 12 FG , 2 - 4 FT ) , eight rebounds and one assist , in 19 minutes . Trevor Ariza also chipped in 16 points ( 5 - 11 FG , 2 - 5 3Pt , 4 - 4 FG ) , along with six rebounds and four assists , in 36 minutes . Houston had 16 turnovers on the game , while shooting a respectable 48 percent from the field . Next , the Rockets will host the Timberwolves on Friday . Meanwhile , Minnesota has won two of its last three games , with wins over OKC and Memphis , and will be no push over . The Clippers will play the third game of their current five - game road trip in Memphis on Saturday , in what could be a first round preview .
