After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets blew the doors off the Nuggets 118-98. The Nuggets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke; Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nuggets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
