After Action Report
The Bobcats rolled past the Lakers 128-104. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Bobcats cashed in. The Bobcats owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Bobcats locker room is humming, and it showed. Bobcats' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
