After Action Report

In a track meet, the Rockets held off the Timberwolves 115-106. Rockets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Timberwolves answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
