After Action Report
The Rockets handled the Kings 108-95. Ugly basketball, but the Rockets did just enough. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. 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 · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
