Ouch! Sonics Blow the Opener

The Seattle Super Sonics opened their Season by pulling out to a big lead at home against Los Angeles' other team the Clippers. But in the 4th quarter, they let it all slip away as Sam Cassells caught fire and the Sonics could not seem to muster up any energy. The final score was LA 101 Sonics 93. Since the Lakers are having a down year, the Clipper have a chance to make a little noise in their hometown, something that the Angels where able to do a couple of years ago after playing second fiddle for 30 years to the Dodgers.
It was the head coaching debut for Bob Weiss and it was a shame that the team could not cement the victory for him.
