After Action Report
The Rockets demolished the Nets 124-80. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Nets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Nets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Nets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Nets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
