After Action Report
The Bobcats buried the Lakers 134-97. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bobcats cashed in. Bobcats' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Early returns: the Bobcats per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
