After Action Report

The Rockets ran roughshod over the Lakers 143-113. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
