After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics squeaked past the Mavericks 99-96. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. The SuperSonics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Mavericks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
