After Action Report
In Houston, the SuperSonics blew the doors off the Rockets 120-99. The SuperSonics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The SuperSonics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Rockets are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
