After Action Report
The Mavericks downed the Rockets 111-98. Mavericks' offense had its way with the Rockets. The Rockets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
