A nice win for your Seattle Supersonics today in Minneapolis. The Sonics had this game in hand early, but let a pesky Wolves team hang around and almost take the win. Much of that was due to sloppy play - the Sonics gave the ball away far too easily today. Thankfully we hit our free throws, which was all the difference in the game.
Kevin Durant led the Sonics in scoring with 25 points on 8 of 18 shooting. Chris Wilcox had 18 points and 15 rebounds, and looked really good on the offensive end today.
Nick Collison was day and night between first and second half. He started the game 5 for 5, and finished the game 5 for 10.
Al Jefferson was tough today, but I really thought the Sonics did a poor job of forcing him into places he didn't want to be. He got to his spot in the paint virtually at will
The unofficial box score from tonight's game.
