After Action Report
The Nuggets handled the Rockets 95-81. The Nuggets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Nuggets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
