After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics handled the 76ers 129-111. The SuperSonics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; the SuperSonics sent shots into the fifth row all night. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The 76ers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • 76ers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
