After Action Report
In Seattle, the SuperSonics ran roughshod over the Celtics 115-85. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Celtics. The SuperSonics ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
