After Action Report

The SuperSonics outlasted the Warriors 118-109. SuperSonics controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; SuperSonics' balanced five covered every spot on the floor. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Balanced Five A starting five that covers every position with even talent finds a synergy edge.
  • SuperSonics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
