That's kind of what it sounds like - the spacecraft rapidly depressurized beginning in the wheel bays. (This is my own decidedly non-technical speculation.)
Could the area have overheated causing a tire to blow? Wouldn't temp sensors have recored a rise in temp, though, before a tire could get overheated enough to blow?
