After Action Report
In Houston, the Spurs survived the Rockets 103-98. The better team simply showed up tonight. Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
