After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics rolled past the Pistons 115-69. SuperSonics torched the Pistons on the offensive end. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Pistons' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • 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.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
