After Action Report
The Rockets rolled past the Magic 137-111. Rockets torched the Magic on the offensive end. Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Magic's Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
