After Action Report
The SuperSonics outlasted the Magic 101-83. Execution down the stretch made the difference. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; SuperSonics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
