After Action Report
The SuperSonics survived the Celtics 101-97. SuperSonics' scorers couldn't be contained. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' outside barrage was a constant threat. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
