After Action Report

The SuperSonics buried the Mavericks 117-84. SuperSonics' scorers couldn't be contained. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; SuperSonics' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • 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 · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
