After Action Report
The Rockets buried the Spurs 117-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Rockets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Garbage time started early.

- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
