After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Rockets took care of the Spurs 135-123. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
