After Action Report
The Rockets handled the Warriors 122-111. The Warriors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
