After Action Report
The Bucks demolished the Rockets 117-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bucks cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Bucks; the Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Bucks locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
