After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Hornets 128-106. The Hornets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Hornets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
