After Action Report

In a track meet, the Bobcats outlasted the Kings 110-103. Ugly basketball, but the Bobcats did just enough. The Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Bobcats' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
