After Action Report

The SuperSonics blew the doors off the Warriors 106-83. The better team simply showed up tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the SuperSonics stayed locked in; SuperSonics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Warriors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
