After Action Report
The Rockets survived the Nuggets 123-120. Rockets' offense had its way with the Nuggets. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Rockets stayed locked in. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it

- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
