After Action Report
The Rockets blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 129-98. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Trail Blazers came in with something to prove after a loss. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
