After Action Report
In Golden State, the SuperSonics ran roughshod over the Warriors 130-85. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.

- SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- SuperSonics · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
