After Action Report
The Rockets blew the doors off the SuperSonics 133-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's SuperSonics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
