Ray Allen was the man. And the go to man in OT with 11 pts ending w/spectacular totals, 32 pts and 11 rebounds. Rashard threw in 19 of his own to help the cause. Ridnour and Collison, the "draft" boys had 10 apiece in a solid outing for the Sonics. The Wolves felt the sting for sure.
Here is the killer stat of the game. And hitting at this pct. consistently will win a lot of games, close or not. The Sonics hit , get this...33 out of 36 free throws on the night. Thats as good as it gets. Bobby Weiss also picked up his 1st real victory as head coach of Seattle. Kudos to Bob...back at .500 already.
Now we hit the road. The Griz, Cavs, and Wiz next, all in their houses. 3 games in 4 days. All the way back east. Tough road ahead, but if we return from 6 away at .500 or better, thats an accomplishment. Hopefully it will be done. Develop who you are early then play in that mode like last year. Are we true contenders, this trip will shed some light on how this season develops. 11/8@Memphis, 11/9@Cleveland, 11/11@Washington...11/11 is a really bad beer that is usually in the 40oz container, ghetto store beer...ever had it? Nasty. Oh, uh, I've never had it. Pass the PBR, official beer (I'm not kidding) of Portland, OR!

Not only did you have an incredible free throw advantage, but I thought one of the other keys to the Sonics win was that they outrebounded us 43-35.
