After Action Report
The Warriors rolled past the Rockets 117-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Warriors' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
