After Action Report
The Rockets pulled away from the Kings 105-87. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
