After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Kings 136-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; the Kings bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
