After Action Report

The Rockets buried the SuperSonics 116-95. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. The Rockets came in with something to prove after a loss; the SuperSonics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
