After Action Report
The Suns ran roughshod over the Rockets 122-86. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns bent the defense out of shape from deep; Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- 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.
