After Action Report
The Heat buried the Rockets 118-81. Heat's scorers couldn't be contained. The Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.
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.
