After Action Report

The SuperSonics handled the Trail Blazers 97-84. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the SuperSonics sent shots into the fifth row all night. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
