After Action Report
In a track meet, the Rockets demolished the Magic 140-103. Rockets' offense had its way with the Magic. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the Rockets. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
