After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Lakers 113-72. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
