After Action Report

The Rockets ran roughshod over the Knicks 109-88. Rockets torched the Knicks on the offensive end. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Knicks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
