After Action Report
In Detroit, the SuperSonics ran roughshod over the Pistons 127-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. The SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Pistons pushed the pace until the other side broke. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. The Pistons rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
