After Action Report

The Mavericks pulled away from the SuperSonics 100-85. Ugly basketball, but the Mavericks did just enough. Mavericks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
