After Action Report
In a track meet, the SuperSonics handled the Cavaliers 110-94. The tempo dragged the Cavaliers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Cavaliers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
