After Action Report
The Rockets pulled away from the Spurs 113-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
