After Action Report

The Lakers survived the SuperSonics 107-105. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. The Lakers couldn't shake the cold spell; second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
