After Action Report

The SuperSonics snuck past the Mavericks 109-108. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Mavericks. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; shots just aren't falling for the Mavericks lately. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Mavericks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
