After Action Report

The SuperSonics pulled away from the Rockets 113-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; SuperSonics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
