After Action Report
The SuperSonics demolished the Lakers 105-85. Every possession went the SuperSonics way. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Lakers' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. 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.
