After Action Report
The Rockets buried the Suns 123-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
