After Action Report
In Seattle, the Rockets rolled past the SuperSonics 130-98. Rockets' offense had its way with the SuperSonics. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
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.
