Keeping an eye on the NBA and Seattle's efforts to get back into the game
Thursday, October 18th, 2007
Posted by Eric Williams @ 07:47:17 pm
The Sonics looked good early, jumping out to a 14-5 lead. Earl Watson did a nice job of pushing the ball, and Chris Wilcox and Damien Wilkins were the offensive catalysts.
But predictably, the Lakers reeled Seattle back in and took the lead at the end of the quarter.
Former Gonzaga star Ronny Turiaf led Los Angeles with 13 points in the first quarter.
The Lakers looked to be pushing the ball just as much as Seattle, which may negate Seattle's ability to run. Teams that like to get out and push it don't like it when other teams do the same thing against them.
