After Action Report

The SuperSonics demolished the Lakers 146-82. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Lakers. The SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
