After Action Report
The Grizzlies squeaked past the Rockets 127-126 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Grizzlies cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. The Grizzlies rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
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.
