After Action Report

The Rockets ran roughshod over the Spurs 133-111. The breakneck pace played right into Rockets' hands. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
