After Action Report

The Lakers fended off the Rockets 121-114. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · 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.
  • Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
