After Action Report
The Rockets fended off the Jazz 107-98. Ugly basketball, but the Rockets did just enough. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Rockets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
