After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Raptors 98-76. The better team simply showed up tonight. Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Raptors' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
