In Seattle, the SuperSonics held off the Rockets 127-120. The tempo dragged the Rockets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The SuperSonics answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
