After Action Report
The SuperSonics squeaked past the Lakers 93-91. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. The SuperSonics couldn't shake the cold spell; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
