After last night's game in Los Angeles, Sonics coach Bob Hill lamented a 48-16 free throw disparity in the Lakers? favor that he said transformed the outcome of the game.

?I think it?s really difficult to win a basketball game when one team shoots 48 and you shoot 16 and you drive the ball to the basket two-thirds of the game,? Hill said.

The Lakers took the honors 118-112, dropping the Sonics to an 0-2 record while L.A. moved to 3-0.
