After Action Report
In Houston, the Heat survived the Rockets 95-91. Ugly basketball, but the Heat did just enough. The Heat answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Heat · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
