After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets edged the Bulls 121-113. The breakneck pace played right into Rockets' hands. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Rockets · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
