After Action Report
The SuperSonics demolished the Suns 130-104. The Suns had no answer for the variance gods tonight. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
