After Action Report
In New York, the Knicks demolished the SuperSonics 127-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Knicks cashed in. The Knicks played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Knicks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Knicks locker room is humming, and it showed. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Knicks · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.

- SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
