After Action Report
The Bobcats rolled past the Timberwolves 105-80. The Bobcats won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Bobcats carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Bobcats' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Bobcats bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Bobcats per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Garbage time started early.
