After Action Report
The Trail Blazers outlasted the Rockets 110-99. Trail Blazers torched the Rockets on the offensive end. Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. Style points be damned.
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.
