After Action Report
The Nets blew the doors off the Rockets 120-96. Nets torched the Rockets on the offensive end. Nets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Rockets' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
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.
