After Action Report

In Detroit, the SuperSonics handled the Pistons 117-101. The better team simply showed up tonight. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Whispers of a Pistons locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Pistons · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Pistons · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
