After Action Report
The Kings outlasted the Rockets 105-98. Kings torched the Rockets on the offensive end. Kings' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Rockets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
