After Action Report
In Houston, the Warriors blew the doors off the Rockets 128-107. Warriors controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Warriors bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Warriors bench chemistry carried them. The Warriors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
