After Action Report
In Minnesota, the Bobcats fended off the Timberwolves 97-89. Ugly basketball, but the Bobcats did just enough. The Bobcats came in with something to prove after a loss; 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. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
