After Action Report

The Heat outlasted the SuperSonics 86-69. The SuperSonics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Heat. The SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss; SuperSonics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
