After Action Report
The Rockets held off the Kings 105-97. Every possession went the Rockets way. The Rockets ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
