After Action Report

The Hornets rolled past the SuperSonics 123-98. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; shots just aren't falling for the SuperSonics lately. The Hornets bench chemistry carried them. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Hornets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
