After Action Report
In Phoenix, the SuperSonics demolished the Suns 114-88. The breakneck pace played right into SuperSonics' hands. SuperSonics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
