After Action Report

The Rockets pulled away from the Bucks 113-97. Rockets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bucks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bucks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bucks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
