After Action Report
The SuperSonics blew the doors off the Lakers 127-99. The breakneck pace played right into SuperSonics' hands. The SuperSonics looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
