After Action Report

The SuperSonics outlasted the Suns 120-106. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Suns. SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Suns · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
