After Action Report

The Trail Blazers survived the SuperSonics 96-94. Ugly basketball, but the Trail Blazers did just enough. The Trail Blazers came in with something to prove after a loss; SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
