After Action Report
The SuperSonics ran roughshod over the Rockets 125-81. The SuperSonics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the Rockets. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
