After Action Report
In a track meet, the SuperSonics outlasted the Lakers 135-127. The SuperSonics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. SuperSonics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
