The naysayer?s have been saying it from day one, this Sonics team is merely a fluke.  And yet, they continue to win using their up-tempo, long range shooting, European style of basketball, which along with the Phoenix Suns, is transforming the NBA.

The Supersonics easily handled the underachieving Jazz last night 112-105, breaking a two game skid.  

?We came out and played very hard from the get-go, and I thought a lot of that had to do with losing two games,? Antonio Daniels said. ?We had to bring our own motivation, and we did. We wanted to respond in the proper manner tonight.?

At first it seemed that the Sonics would cool off and have to adjust to the NBA, now it seems that the NBA must adjust to the Sonics.
