After Action Report
In Miami, the Rockets held off the Heat 115-108. Rockets controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Heat · 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.
