After Action Report
The Rockets fended off the Spurs 105-99. Ugly basketball, but the Rockets did just enough. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
