After Action Report
The Rockets snuck past the 76ers 135-130. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Rockets; Rockets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Tonight's 76ers utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it

- 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
