After Action Report

The Suns squeaked past the SuperSonics 96-92. The Suns won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. SuperSonics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Suns per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it
