After Action Report

The SuperSonics blew the doors off the Magic 119-96. SuperSonics' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; the SuperSonics steamroller is in full effect right now. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Magic utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
