After Action Report

The Kings blew the doors off the Rockets 120-100. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Kings carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.
