The Rockets blew the doors off the Spurs 110-87. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Spurs came in with something to prove after a loss. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
