After Action Report
The Rockets squeaked past the Spurs 104-103. Every possession went the Rockets way. Fresh off a statement win, the Rockets stayed locked in; second-chance points piled up for the Spurs. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
