After Action Report
The Bobcats handled the Lakers 108-97. Every possession went the Bobcats way. The Bobcats answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Bobcats' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping. Early returns: the Bobcats per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Bobcats · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
