After Action Report

In Philadelphia, the Rockets demolished the 76ers 141-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. It was over by halftime.

  • Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
