After Action Report
The SuperSonics demolished the Mavericks 121-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. You could feel the revenge motivation from the SuperSonics; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It broke open after the break.

- SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
