After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Mavericks 131-91. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
