After Action Report

In Charlotte, the Bobcats snuck past the SuperSonics 109-108. Bobcats' scorers couldn't be contained. Bobcats' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the SuperSonics played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. Bobcats' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • SuperSonics · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • SuperSonics · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
