After Action Report
The Rockets squeaked past the Trail Blazers 106-101. Rockets' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; the Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Trail Blazers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
