After Action Report

The Magic blew the doors off the SuperSonics 93-72. The better team simply showed up tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Magic lately; SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

What tipped it

  • Magic · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
