After Action Report
In a track meet, the SuperSonics blew the doors off the Suns 153-116. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Fresh off a statement win, the SuperSonics stayed locked in; SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It was over by halftime.
