After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets rolled past the Magic 130-92. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. Magic's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
