After Action Report
The Rockets buried the Spurs 123-103. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
