After Action Report

In a track meet, the Bobcats outlasted the Raptors 109-101. The Raptors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bobcats. Fresh off a statement win, the Bobcats stayed locked in; the Bobcats pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Raptors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Bobcats' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
