After Action Report
The Rockets buried the Nuggets 121-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Nuggets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
