After Action Report

The Rockets held off the Bobcats 113-105. Rockets' stops on the defensive end set the tone. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
