After Action Report
The SuperSonics snuck past the Rockets 99-97. Every possession went the SuperSonics way. You could feel the revenge motivation from the SuperSonics; the Rockets pushed the pace until the other side broke. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
