After Action Report

The SuperSonics demolished the Mavericks 118-89. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; SuperSonics' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • 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.
