After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Kings pulled away from the SuperSonics 116-104. The Kings got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Kings' defenders refused to give up clean looks; SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The SuperSonics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. SuperSonics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

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.
