After Action Report
The SuperSonics ran roughshod over the Spurs 114-94. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Spurs. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Spurs looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Spurs · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
