After Action Report
In a track meet, the SuperSonics snuck past the Mavericks 129-124. The breakneck pace played right into SuperSonics' hands. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
