After Action Report
The SuperSonics fended off the Trail Blazers 105-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; SuperSonics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. 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.
- Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Trail Blazers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
