After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics edged the Warriors 104-96. The SuperSonics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
