After Action Report
The Rockets edged the Lakers 107-98. Rockets torched the Lakers on the offensive end. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
