After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Rockets buried the Kings 114-90. Rockets torched the Kings on the offensive end. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. Kings' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
