After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets rolled past the Jazz 122-97. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Jazz came in with something to prove after a loss. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
