After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets upended the SuperSonics 126-116. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. An upset for the books.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
