After Action Report
The Lakers squeaked past the Rockets 108-103. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping.
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.
