After Action Report
The Rockets pulled away from the Lakers 110-96. Rockets' offense had its way with the Lakers. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
