After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets shocked the Grizzlies 110-102. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Grizzlies · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
