After Action Report

The SuperSonics fended off the Clippers 103-97. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
