After Action Report

In Boston, the Bobcats squeaked past the Celtics 120-118. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bobcats cashed in. The Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Bobcats bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Bobcats bench chemistry carried them.
