After Action Report
The Rockets squeaked past the SuperSonics 109-107. The Rockets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
