After Action Report

The SuperSonics snuck past the Bulls 105-100 in overtime. SuperSonics torched the Bulls on the offensive end. The SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Bulls · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Bulls · 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.
