After Action Report

The Rockets blew the doors off the 76ers 129-104. The 76ers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Rockets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Rockets' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
