After Action Report
The Trail Blazers shocked the SuperSonics 92-90. The SuperSonics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Trail Blazers. The Trail Blazers bent the defense out of shape from deep; the SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. An upset for the books.
