With this loss, the Rockets have officially been upset in the playoffs and have been sent home. The Rockets have not won a playoff series since the 2020 NBA Bubble, and that streak will continue this year. While the Rockets' playoff loss on its own may not have much of an impact on the Toronto Raptors or the fans on the surface, it might still be an unfortunate sight due to one specific player--Fred VanVleet.
