After Action Report

The Rockets buried the Trail Blazers 124-102. The Trail Blazers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Rockets lately; the Trail Blazers came in with something to prove after a loss. Never a doubt in this one.

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.
  • Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
