After Action Report

The SuperSonics pulled away from the Mavericks 114-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the SuperSonics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
