After Action Report

The SuperSonics edged the Spurs 97-91. The Spurs couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. You could feel the revenge motivation from the SuperSonics; Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

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