After Action Report
The Rockets took care of the Mavericks 118-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
