Well, this is a nice turnaround. After a 6-game losing streak, the Sonics pull out a win against the Raptors, 110-97. Ray Allen's back, Rashard is out. Ray came out of his injury with guns blazing, and he was pretty accurate this time, 28 points, 5-6 from the 3-point line (something he hasn't done in a long time). With the Sonics winning 84-81 at the end of the 3rd quarter, the Sonics knew they would have to pull ahead... and fast, before their bad luck streak of one-shot games could continue. So they outscored Toronto 26-16 in the 4th quarter to close out the game. Good job by the Sonics to close out this game.
Here's what I'm proud of: Ray Allen came out in his debut at home, and he kept in the Sonics game of passing the ball for the shot. When Ray took the shot, he made it most of the time, taking only 15 shots for his 28 points (5-6 FT as well). The proof of this is that the Sonics had 6 players in double digits. Also, the Sonics outrebounded their opponent for the first time in many games, grabbing 45 boards. 5 players had at least 5 rebounds. As a team, the Sonics shot 51 percent from the field. Keep up the good work, Sonics! I hope they play this way more often now!
