The unofficial box score from tonight's game and PopcornMachine's GameFlow.
I'm glad we beat the Knicks. Regardless of which side of the fence you fall on (draft position or playoff push) beating the Knicks always feels good.
It feels especially good when Rashard hits a big shot like that. Outstanding play tonight from Earl Watson. Rashard played really well too. Ray's shot was a bit off, but he came up big again in the 4th quarter, and had a solid all around game. Although he started poorly, Chris Wilcox was playing better before getting clocked in the head.
The concerns for the night were only 10 free throws for the Sonics. That is appalling for an NBA team. There are players that average that many attempts on any given night. We also out-fouled the Knicks at a 2 to 1 ratio. Plus, no playing time for Gelabale is again a real disappointment.
