After Action Report

The SuperSonics buried the Warriors 121-95. The Warriors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Warriors are in a full-on tailspin. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
