After Action Report
The Rockets outlasted the Bobcats 102-95. Ugly basketball, but the Rockets did just enough. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
