After Action Report

The SuperSonics snuck past the Hornets 108-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the SuperSonics couldn't shake the cold spell.

What tipped it

  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
