After Action Report

The Rockets demolished the Bobcats 118-97. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
