After Action Report
In Memphis, the Rockets buried the Grizzlies 145-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Grizzlies rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.

- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
