After Action Report
In Houston, the Bucks demolished the Rockets 113-88. Every possession went the Bucks way. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. The Bucks bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
