After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 115-95. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Shots just aren't falling for the Timberwolves lately; the Timberwolves bent the defense out of shape from deep. 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.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
