The Spurs held off the SuperSonics 109-102. The Spurs got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Spurs couldn't shake the cold spell; the Spurs bent the defense out of shape from deep.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
