After Action Report
In Golden State, the Rockets squeaked past the Warriors 106-102. The Rockets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
