After Action Report

In Charlotte, the Bobcats squeaked past the Nuggets 115-111. The tempo dragged the Nuggets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Bobcats carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Nuggets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
