After Action Report

The Rockets blew the doors off the Kings 121-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Kings ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
