After Action Report
In a track meet, the 76ers upended the Rockets 105-104. 76ers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The 76ers are in a full-on tailspin; 76ers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- 76ers · 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.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
