After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets ran roughshod over the SuperSonics 126-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
