After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the SuperSonics survived the Clippers 104-103. SuperSonics' scorers couldn't be contained. The SuperSonics owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the SuperSonics steamroller is in full effect right now. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
