After Action Report
The Rockets snuck past the Bulls 104-101. The Rockets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Bulls couldn't shake the cold spell; Bulls' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Rockets locker room is humming, and it showed. 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.
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
