After Action Report
The SuperSonics survived the Lakers 103-101. The SuperSonics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Lakers are in a full-on tailspin. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
