After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Heat 112-85. Rockets' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Heat · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
