After Action Report
The SuperSonics stunned the Clippers 126-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. The SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss; Clippers' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
