After Action Report

In Houston, the SuperSonics took care of the Rockets 131-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Rockets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
