After Action Report
The Warriors blew the doors off the Rockets 122-99. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. Fresh off a statement win, the Warriors stayed locked in; Warriors' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Warriors · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
