In Houston, the Rockets survived the Celtics 112-108. Every possession went the Rockets way. The Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Celtics steamroller is in full effect right now. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
