After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets pulled away from the Mavericks 116-101. The breakneck pace played right into Rockets' hands. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
