After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics blew the doors off the Lakers 130-88. The SuperSonics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Shots just aren't falling for the SuperSonics lately; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
