After Action Report
The Rockets took care of the Kings 107-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Rockets; Rockets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
