Resilient Clippers face test against lethargic Rockets

For the Los Angeles Clippers, their first game out of the All-Star Game break provided yet another example of the power behind an egalitarian approach to basketball. The Clippers have long since grown accustomed to playing without Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, and they have endured their moments of struggling to piecemeal together a viable rotation. It all came together Friday in the Clippers' 105-102 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers.
