After Action Report
The Suns stunned the SuperSonics 131-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- 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.
