After Action Report

The Rockets took care of the 76ers 111-97. Rockets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
