After Action Report
The Celtics survived the SuperSonics 121-116 in overtime. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Celtics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
