After Action Report

The Lakers squeaked past the SuperSonics 94-91 in overtime. Lakers' offense had its way with the SuperSonics. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • 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.
