After Action Report
The Rockets squeaked past the Jazz 102-100. Rockets torched the Jazz on the offensive end. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
