After Action Report
The SuperSonics squeaked past the Mavericks 97-92. The Mavericks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. SuperSonics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; the Mavericks are in a full-on tailspin. Whispers of a Mavericks locker-room rift aren't helping. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
