After Action Report
In Dallas, the SuperSonics rolled past the Mavericks 105-81. The Mavericks couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
