After Action Report

The Hawks survived the SuperSonics 130-127. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Hawks cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Hawks; shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately. Hawks' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
