After Action Report

The Bobcats ran roughshod over the Mavericks 141-116. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Bobcats' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Bobcats. The Bobcats rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Bobcats · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Bobcats · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
