The Suns edged the Rockets 107-100. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Suns. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Suns. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
