After Action Report
The SuperSonics knocked off the Hornets 123-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the SuperSonics cashed in. Hornets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The SuperSonics locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the SuperSonics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
