After Action Report
The Rockets snuck past the 76ers 99-94. Ugly basketball, but the Rockets did just enough. The Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep; 76ers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a 76ers locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Rockets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
