After Action Report

The Rockets ran roughshod over the SuperSonics 125-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Rockets' outside barrage was a constant threat; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
