After Action Report
The Trail Blazers took care of the Rockets 103-87. Every possession went the Trail Blazers way. The Trail Blazers couldn't shake the cold spell; the Trail Blazers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
