After Action Report

The Hornets survived the Rockets 76-72. Hornets' offense had its way with the Rockets. The Hornets bent the defense out of shape from deep; shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

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.
  • Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
