After Action Report

The Rockets squeaked past the Suns 113-112. Every possession went the Rockets way. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; the Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
