After Action Report

The SuperSonics survived the Suns 98-96. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the SuperSonics stayed locked in. Survive-and-advance type win.

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.
  • Suns · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
