After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics stunned the Spurs 110-105. The Spurs had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The SuperSonics couldn't shake the cold spell; Spurs' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
