After Action Report
The SuperSonics demolished the Hornets 100-71. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the SuperSonics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Hornets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- 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.
- Hornets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
