After Action Report
The Rockets outlasted the Warriors 117-101. The Warriors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Warriors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Warriors utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
