After Action Report
The SuperSonics buried the Lakers 116-90. The better team simply showed up tonight. The SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss; SuperSonics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
