After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets fended off the Kings 95-88. The Rockets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Rockets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
