After Action Report
The Bobcats survived the Lakers 111-108. Bobcats' offense had its way with the Lakers. The Bobcats came in with something to prove after a loss; Bobcats' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Bobcats per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
