After Action Report

The Rockets blew the doors off the Pistons 134-114. The tempo dragged the Pistons into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke; Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. It broke open after the break.
