After Action Report
The Celtics blew the doors off the SuperSonics 122-95. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Celtics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Celtics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Whispers of a SuperSonics locker-room rift aren't helping. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
