In his first regular season home game rookie Kevin Durant has been as good as advertised, scoring 18 points on 7-for-14 shooting.
The up-tempo game seems to be helping Durant, as he is getting out in the open floor more, making it easier for him to get shots close to the basket.
After watching Seattle play Phoenix again a second time this year the Sonics seem to match up well with the Suns because of Phoenix's lack of height.
In particular, guys like Nick Collison can score a lot easier inside.
Defensively Seattle has looked better, getting out on Phoenix's shooters and holding them to one shot.
Damien Wilkins hit a long 3-pointer at the buzzer to give Seattle a 58-55 lead at the half.
