After Action Report

The Bobcats buried the SuperSonics 145-115. Bobcats' offense had its way with the SuperSonics. The Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the SuperSonics are in a full-on tailspin. The Bobcats bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bobcats per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.

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.
  • Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
