After Action Report

The Rockets snuck past the Jazz 111-107. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Jazz's high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
