After Action Report
In Seattle, the SuperSonics survived the Hornets 118-113. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
