What tipped it

  • Rockets · 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.
  • SuperSonics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
