After Action Report

In Dallas, the SuperSonics outlasted the Mavericks 108-102. SuperSonics' offense had its way with the Mavericks. Fresh off a statement win, the SuperSonics stayed locked in; the Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The SuperSonics bench chemistry carried them. SuperSonics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
