After Action Report
The Rockets took care of the Kings 101-82. The Kings couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Rockets. The Rockets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; second-chance points piled up for the Kings. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
