After Action Report

In Seattle, the SuperSonics survived the Spurs 109-106. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it
