After Action Report
The Rockets pulled away from the Celtics 115-103. The Celtics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets steamroller is in full effect right now; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
