After Action Report

In Dallas, the SuperSonics squeaked past the Mavericks 113-108. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. SuperSonics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the SuperSonics came in with something to prove after a loss. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
