After Action Report

The SuperSonics outlasted the Lakers 111-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

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.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
