After Action Report
In Charlotte, the Bobcats blew the doors off the Bulls 112-89. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Bobcats' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.
What tipped it
- Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Bobcats · Block Party Multiple shot-blockers turn the paint into a no-fly zone.
- Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Bulls · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
