After Action Report

The SuperSonics fended off the Rockets 110-102. The better team simply showed up tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the SuperSonics stayed locked in; SuperSonics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Rockets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
