After Action Report

The SuperSonics pulled away from the Kings 115-97. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the SuperSonics lately; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • SuperSonics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
