After Action Report

The SuperSonics squeaked past the Lakers 111-107. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Lakers. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; you could feel the revenge motivation from the SuperSonics. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. 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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
