After Action Report
In a track meet, the Rockets fended off the SuperSonics 117-108. Rockets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
