After Action Report
The Rockets upended the Cavaliers 105-95. Every possession went the Rockets way. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Cavaliers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
