After Action Report

The Rockets buried the Timberwolves 121-95. The Timberwolves had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Timberwolves steamroller is in full effect right now. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
