After Action Report
The Bulls snuck past the Rockets 105-103. The Rockets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bulls. Bulls' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Bulls per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
