After Action Report

The Rockets squeaked past the Bobcats 123-121. Rockets' offense had its way with the Bobcats. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Bobcats played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
