After Action Report

The Spurs rolled past the SuperSonics 134-96. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Spurs cashed in. Spurs' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Spurs bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • SuperSonics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Spurs · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
