After Action Report

The Rockets survived the Bucks 117-114. The tempo dragged the Bucks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bucks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
