After Action Report

The Rockets took care of the Bulls 124-113. The Bulls had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Rockets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
