After Action Report
In a track meet, the SuperSonics buried the Bulls 146-125. The SuperSonics got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Bulls · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- 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.
