After Action Report
The SuperSonics took care of the Timberwolves 114-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. SuperSonics' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Timberwolves' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
