After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Spurs 112-88. Every possession went the Rockets way. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
