After Action Report

The Rockets pulled away from the Suns 121-111. Rockets' offense had its way with the Suns. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
