After Action Report
The Rockets blew the doors off the Mavericks 148-97. Rockets' offense had its way with the Mavericks. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
