After Action Report
The Nets squeaked past the Rockets 114-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
