After Action Report
The SuperSonics buried the Trail Blazers 129-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. The SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the SuperSonics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
