After Action Report
The Rockets took care of the Nuggets 126-116. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Fresh off a statement win, the Rockets stayed locked in; Nuggets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Nuggets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
