After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics snuck past the Magic 117-112. The Magic had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The SuperSonics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; the Magic came in with something to prove after a loss. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Magic · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
