After Action Report
The Hornets fended off the Rockets 113-105. Every possession went the Hornets way. The Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Hornets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
