After Action Report
The SuperSonics outlasted the Pacers 106-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; shots just aren't falling for the Pacers lately. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Pacers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
