Seattle finished the quarter on a 12-4 run to grab a 57-49 lead at halftime.
The Sonics are moving the ball much better offensively, with point guard Earl Watson having his best game so far this season. Watson has six points and four assists, but more than his stats he's done a nice job of spreading the floor, attacking the basket when he needs to and getting the ball to places where his teammates can score.
After a poor shooting night against Sacramento Damien Wilkins is back shooting the ball well. He leads the Sonics with 12 points on 5-of-8 shooting from the field.
Seattle has kept the turnovers down somewhat (only 7), and the Sonics have 32 points in the paint compared to the Grizzlies' 16. Kevin Durant finished with nine points and and two rebounds, shooting 3-of-9 from the field.
A good half, let's see if Seattle can keep it up.
