After Action Report

The Bobcats ran roughshod over the Timberwolves 123-102. Bobcats controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Timberwolves are in a full-on tailspin. The Timberwolves looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it
