After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the SuperSonics survived the Lakers 114-111. The tempo dragged the Lakers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the SuperSonics. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Style points be damned.
