After Action Report

The Rockets outlasted the 76ers 123-107. The 76ers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; 76ers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
