After Action Report

The Bobcats snuck past the Lakers 115-111. Bobcats' scorers couldn't be contained. The Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Bobcats bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
