After Action Report

In Sacramento, the SuperSonics rolled past the Kings 123-101. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The SuperSonics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; the Kings came in with something to prove after a loss. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
