After Action Report

In Charlotte, the Bobcats fended off the Celtics 116-109. The better team simply showed up tonight. Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Celtics' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
