After Action Report
The Spurs demolished the Rockets 127-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
