After Action Report
The Rockets demolished the Spurs 130-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
