After Action Report

In Portland, the Trail Blazers demolished the Rockets 129-97. Trail Blazers torched the Rockets on the offensive end. Trail Blazers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; the Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
