After Action Report
In a track meet, the Rockets snuck past the Spurs 108-104. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Spurs' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
