The Rockets ran roughshod over the Warriors 110-78. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Rockets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Warriors' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
