After Action Report

In Houston, the Rockets snuck past the SuperSonics 129-125. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Rockets; SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
