After Action Report
In Golden State, the Warriors survived the Rockets 115-113. Warriors torched the Rockets on the offensive end. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Rockets' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Rockets looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Tonight's Rockets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
