After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets pulled away from the Lakers 105-93. Rockets' scorers couldn't be contained. The Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell; Rockets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
