After Action Report
The Rockets outlasted the Warriors 112-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat; Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Whispers of a Warriors locker-room rift aren't helping. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
