After Action Report
In New Orleans, the Rockets snuck past the Hornets 120-115 in overtime. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke; Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
