After Action Report
The SuperSonics knocked off the Mavericks 130-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks owned the glass, generating extra possessions. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Mavericks · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
