What tipped it

  • Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
