After Action Report

The SuperSonics handled the Pacers 114-97. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Pacers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
