After Action Report
The Suns squeaked past the SuperSonics 104-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Suns' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
