After Action Report

The SuperSonics survived the Trail Blazers 98-97. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the SuperSonics. The SuperSonics carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; SuperSonics' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
