After Action Report

In Seattle, the Nets took care of the SuperSonics 100-86. The SuperSonics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Nets. Nets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the SuperSonics couldn't shake the cold spell. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. The Nets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
