What happened: The Houston Rockets hold a 70-38 advantage with the game in progress, repeatedly finishing above the rim during a lopsided stretch of play.

Why it matters: Houston's ability to generate high-percentage looks at the basket has fueled a dominant offensive run and kept constant pressure on the interior defense.

What to watch: Action continues as the Houston Rockets look to sustain their paint production through the remainder of the contest.
