At this current pace, one can say that it will be a long season for rookie forward Kevin Durant and especially the Seattle SuperSonics.? The Memphis Grizzlies overcame a 14-point deficit in the second half to defeat the winless SuperSonics 105-98.? Seattle is now off to its worst start in 38 years.
Seattle did pull to within 100-98 with Durant’s two free throws with 48 seconds left in the game, But somehow they allowed Grizzlies guard Kyle Lowry to get free twice on the winning possession for Memphis.? Memphis’ leading scorer was forward Rudy Gay with 25 points and 10 rebounds, with guard Mike Miller adding 20 – going 6-for-10 from 3-point range; point guard Damon Stoudemire chipped in 14.? Seattle was led by was led by forward-center Chris Wilcox with 21 pointsand 8 rebounds, with swingman Damien Wilkins adding 18; the aforementioned Durant endured a miserable night, scoring 17 points on a woeful 3-for-17 shooting effort.? Memphis (1-2) travels south to challenge the Portland Trailblazers Friday night while Seattle (0-5) hosts the Utah Jazz, also on friday night.
