After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics survived the Mavericks 99-96. The Mavericks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. The Mavericks steamroller is in full effect right now; Mavericks' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Mavericks · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
