After Action Report

The SuperSonics snuck past the 76ers 116-114. SuperSonics torched the 76ers on the offensive end. The SuperSonics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; SuperSonics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The 76ers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. 76ers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • 76ers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 76ers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • 76ers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
