In Charlotte, the Bobcats handled the Lakers 106-95. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Bobcats' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Lakers are in a full-on tailspin. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. Bobcats' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
