After Action Report
The Rockets pulled away from the Pacers 127-109. Rockets' scorers couldn't be contained. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Pacers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
