After Action Report
In Portland, the SuperSonics survived the Trail Blazers 90-85. Ugly basketball, but the SuperSonics did just enough. The SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; SuperSonics' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
