After Action Report
The Rockets pulled away from the Hawks 115-102. Lineup balance gave the Rockets a clear synergy edge. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
