After Action Report

The Suns rolled past the SuperSonics 114-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. The Suns answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Suns' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.
