After Action Report
The Rockets ran roughshod over the Bucks 131-98. The Bucks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. Whispers of a Bucks locker-room rift aren't helping. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Bucks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Bucks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Bucks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
