After Action Report
In Golden State, the Rockets survived the Warriors 86-84. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Warriors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
