After Action Report
The Rockets handled the 76ers 111-93. Rockets' offense had its way with the 76ers. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a 76ers locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.

- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
