After Action Report

The SuperSonics blew the doors off the Lakers 120-94. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. The SuperSonics couldn't shake the cold spell; SuperSonics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
