After Action Report
The Rockets pulled away from the Cavaliers 113-98. Every possession went the Rockets way. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Rockets; Cavaliers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Cavaliers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Cavaliers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Cavaliers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
