After Action Report

The SuperSonics outlasted the Grizzlies 109-98. The SuperSonics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Superstar Stack delivered when it mattered for the SuperSonics. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. The Grizzlies rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
