The unofficial box score from tonight's game and PopcornMachine's GameFlow.
Another man down. Hopefully Rashard's hand is OK as I don't expect we can get away with taking out every other team's star player to even our odds the rest of the month. Rebounds and Free Throws were the difference in this game. The Sonics took 9 more shots from the floor, and made 7 more baskets than the Mav's. This was offset by Dallas taking 24 more free throws, and making 22 more than the Sonics. This was further offset by the 5 more offensive rebounds Dallas had, and their 11 total rebound advantage. Erick Dampier was the difference maker (not too often you'll ever see those two in the same sentence) and the Sonics had not answer.
There were some good efforts in Rashard Lewis' absence by Luke Ridnour, Chris Wilcox and Earl Watson. Mickael Gelabale also show some more signs that he is really beginning to adapt to the NBA game and is showing the potential the Sonics drafted him on.
Stat of the day: in 60 minutes of playing time Nick Collison and Johan Petro only managed 5 total rebounds.
(19-7)
