After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics squeaked past the Hornets 101-98. The Hornets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Survive-and-advance type win.
