After Action Report
In Seattle, the Rockets ran roughshod over the SuperSonics 120-94. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Second-chance points piled up for the Rockets; the Rockets couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a SuperSonics locker-room rift aren't helping. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Rockets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Rockets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
