After Action Report
In Seattle, the SuperSonics survived the Nuggets 100-99. The Nuggets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. You could feel the revenge motivation from the SuperSonics; Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Nuggets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Nuggets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
