After Action Report

The Mavericks snuck past the SuperSonics 98-96. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Mavericks' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Mavericks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 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.
