After Action Report
The Rockets snuck past the Warriors 101-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Rockets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Warriors pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Warriors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Rockets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
