After Action Report

In Houston, the SuperSonics took care of the Rockets 130-117 in overtime. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
