After Action Report
The Rockets held off the Heat 107-101. Rockets' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
