After Action Report
The SuperSonics knocked off the Clippers 127-120. The breakneck pace played right into SuperSonics' hands. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
