After Action Report
The Lakers held off the SuperSonics 102-93. The SuperSonics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the SuperSonics stayed locked in. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- SuperSonics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
