After Action Report
In Seattle, the SuperSonics blew the doors off the Cavaliers 136-87. SuperSonics' scorers couldn't be contained. SuperSonics' outside barrage was a constant threat; the Cavaliers couldn't shake the cold spell. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The Cavaliers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
