After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets blew the doors off the Knicks 131-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Knicks. Tonight's Knicks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

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