After Action Report
The SuperSonics buried the Hornets 142-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- 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.
