After Action Report
The Suns blew the doors off the Rockets 117-94. Suns torched the Rockets on the offensive end. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
