After Action Report

The SuperSonics demolished the Hornets 118-86. Execution down the stretch made the difference. SuperSonics' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. It was over by halftime.
