After Action Report
The Rockets edged the Lakers 112-103. Rockets torched the Lakers on the offensive end. The Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep; Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
