After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets survived the Spurs 135-133 in overtime. Rockets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
