After Action Report
The SuperSonics knocked off the Clippers 142-140 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. The SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the SuperSonics pushed the pace until the other side broke. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
