After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets upended the Heat 109-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 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.
- Heat · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
