After Action Report
In a track meet, the Rockets survived the Cavaliers 133-129. The breakneck pace played right into Rockets' hands. The Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke; Cavaliers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
