After Action Report
The SuperSonics demolished the Rockets 117-96. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Rockets. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' outside barrage was a constant threat. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Rockets' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Rockets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
