After Action Report

The SuperSonics downed the Timberwolves 94-77. The better team simply showed up tonight. The SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; SuperSonics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Timberwolves looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Timberwolves' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Timberwolves · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
