After Action Report
In a track meet, the SuperSonics survived the Hornets 128-127. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Hornets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
