After Action Report
The Rockets took care of the Nuggets 125-108. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Rockets stayed locked in; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
