HOUSTON (AP) -- - When the Houston Rockets open their second-round Western Conference playoff series against the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night, it will have been six days since they last played. The Clippers are in a much different situation after clawing their way out of the first round with a gritty performance in downing the defending champion San Antonio Spurs in Game 7 on Saturday night. ''It's been good to have our rest - (Monday's) going to be a big game for us, especially with our energy,'' Houston's James Harden said. So we just have to do a really good job of coming out here with energy, making sure we're playing well on both ends of the floor.'' The Rockets are in the Western Conference semifinals for the first time since 2009 and 13th overall.
