After Action Report

The SuperSonics squeaked past the Suns 92-90. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
