After Action Report
The Rockets outlasted the Spurs 125-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
