After Action Report

In a track meet, the Warriors fended off the Rockets 113-106. The tempo dragged the Rockets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Warriors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Warriors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it
