After Action Report
The Rockets squeaked past the Pistons 110-106. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Pistons' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Pistons' outside barrage was a constant threat. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
