After Action Report
The Rockets demolished the Timberwolves 108-85. The better team simply showed up tonight. Rockets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Rockets carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Rockets bench chemistry carried them. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Rockets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
