After Action Report
The Rockets stunned the Trail Blazers 124-116. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep. An upset for the books.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
