After Action Report
The Rockets snuck past the Knicks 99-94. The tempo dragged the Knicks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
