After Action Report
The SuperSonics demolished the Lakers 141-120. SuperSonics controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The SuperSonics pushed the pace until the other side broke; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
