After Action Report
The Rockets blew the doors off the Hornets 118-98. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hornets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
