After Action Report
The Celtics squeaked past the Rockets 108-105. Celtics controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately; the Rockets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping.

- 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.
