After Action Report
In Houston, the Rockets snuck past the Nets 104-102. The Rockets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell; the Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
