After Action Report

In a track meet, the SuperSonics buried the Trail Blazers 129-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
