After Action Report
In Charlotte, the Bobcats blew the doors off the Pistons 120-92. The Pistons couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Bobcats. The Bobcats carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Pistons are in a full-on tailspin. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Pistons utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
