After Action Report
The Lakers survived the SuperSonics 101-100. Every possession went the Lakers way. Lakers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Lakers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
