After Action Report
In Houston, the Kings downed the Rockets 102-89. Ugly basketball, but the Kings did just enough. The Kings carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Kings' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Kings bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Kings per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
