After Action Report

In Seattle, the Rockets squeaked past the SuperSonics 111-107. Rockets torched the SuperSonics on the offensive end. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
