After Action Report

In Seattle, the Celtics pulled away from the SuperSonics 129-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
