After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the SuperSonics ran roughshod over the Lakers 128-106. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 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.
