After Action Report
In Dallas, the SuperSonics ran roughshod over the Mavericks 142-118. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The SuperSonics rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Never a doubt in this one.
