After Action Report

The 76ers survived the Rockets 101-98. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the 76ers. The 76ers couldn't shake the cold spell; the 76ers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
