After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets snuck past the Jazz 120-117. The Jazz had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Jazz · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
