After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Spurs buried the SuperSonics 135-77. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. The Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Spurs' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
