After Action Report
In Seattle, the Nets squeaked past the SuperSonics 125-121. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Nets per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
