The Rockets squeaked past the Grizzlies 112-111. Rockets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
