After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets snuck past the Jazz 143-140. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed.
