After Action Report
In Seattle, the SuperSonics snuck past the Celtics 103-99. The SuperSonics won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. SuperSonics' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
