After Action Report

The SuperSonics blew the doors off the Celtics 117-96. The better team simply showed up tonight. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics owned the glass, generating extra possessions. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
