After Action Report

The SuperSonics survived the Mavericks 100-98. SuperSonics' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics; the SuperSonics bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
