After Action Report
The Rockets outlasted the Mavericks 106-92. Every possession went the Rockets way. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
