After Action Report
The Rockets knocked off the Lakers 108-98. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
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.
- Lakers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
