After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets snuck past the Grizzlies 119-117. The tempo dragged the Grizzlies into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed.
