After Action Report
The Lakers knocked off the SuperSonics 120-115. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- 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.
