After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets rolled past the Jazz 111-85. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
