After Action Report

The Rockets downed the SuperSonics 110-97. The SuperSonics had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Rockets bent the defense out of shape from deep; SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The SuperSonics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Rockets · 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.
