After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Lakers 118-83. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep; Lakers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
