Seattle looks much better offensively, after struggling the last several games trying to put the ball in the basket.
Seattle has three players already in double figures wiht Wally Szczerbiak (14 points), Kevin Durant (12) and Kurt Thomas (10).
And Seattle is shooting 54.3 percent as a team.
So what's the difference been? Seattle is cutting more to the basket and getting more shots inside. And they are getting out in transition more. Seattle had 20 points in the paint in the first half, and 13 fastbreak points.
As expected, Kobe Bryant has been filling it up, leading all scorers with 21 points in the first half. I guess Kevin Durant is not the next Kobe stopper.
