After Action Report

The SuperSonics rolled past the Rockets 118-89. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. 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. It was over by halftime.

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 · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Rockets · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
