After Action Report
The Rockets blew the doors off the Suns 117-96. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
